Rob Heys was on Radio Lancashire a few hours ago and when pressed by the presenter on what had changed with the taxman re: 3 months ago, he stated that ASFC had originally presented a proposal of paying back £12,000 per month and that was rejected. They then went back with a proposal of £18,000 per month with occasional lump sum payments. It was this proposal that they thought had been acceptable to the Inland Revenue. In other words, Rob did not say that £25,000 per month had been agreed and nor did he say that anything about whether any payments had been made.

He also said that the Inland Revenue had been "getting pushy" about the debt over the last few weeks, so this problem with the taxman is something that the club have known about for a few weeks, at the very least.
