Seems as though football clubs at this time of year, due to the transfer window, have money to spend. Some have, potentially, several millions to spend. If money is owed to other businesses/football clubs/taxman etc. then surely debts should be paid before going into the transfer market and offering big bucks in transfers and wages and agents fees etc.A perfect time for HMRC to act. Maybe it will help football to put it`s house in order and put solvency and good business practice first. this surely must benefit football clubs and fans long term.
Regarding Stanley, it seems the taxman has been over-keen, but is just maintaining it`s, recently set, tough line on football clubs.
