Until COVID, when they ran out of money to pay the HMRC… along with many other businesses. HMRC's claim dates only from 2020? Overpaying players is neither here nor there. They have not paid their tax bill. To us, the people of the UK. What would happen to you if you decided to indulge in something expensive rather than pay your tax?

I think if the debt is around £26 million and our wage bill is still around £30 million according to some reports . So Paye and ni for 18 months yes would be around £26 m… if the government told me I wasn’t allowed to go to work and earn money to pay their taxes yes I would be rather miffed if they still charged me tax .

I know nuffin Posted September 30, 2021 Share Posted September 30, 2021 2 hours ago, Sheff Ram said: While things remain positive on the pitch, for me, the worry of liquidation is still very real and much higher than the 5% that the Administrators put it at. In a recent and credible report I've read, it puts an estimate for the funds needed to re-stabalise the club in the region of £70m-80m. A bit more detail on the liabilities: 1. around £27m to HMRC - will have to be paid in full and currently getting charged interest on 2. Circa £8m to "other" creditors (including Cocu) - would need to be paid 25p in the pound 3. the £100m in 'soft' loans to Morris associated with Pride Park. He's indicated he would be prepared to write these off, but it would still leave a £21m charge on PP to MSD Finance. Hence new owners will either have to pay rent for the ground or pay off the debt. Hence MSD are also in the equation if a successful purchase is to be achieved. This puts the club's liabilities at around £50m. On top of that, new owners will need to inject money as "working capital" to keep the club running (hard to estimate but could be anywhere between £5m-£15m) and provide 2-years proof of funds to the EFL (circa £15m). Hence it is easy to see how this estimate of £60-80m has been arrived at. A source in the article also suggests potential investors may wait until May next year once demotion has (most-likely) been confirmed but a deal really needs to be done sooner rather than later. They also think that at the EFL there is likely to be a real "concern" that the club could slip into liquidation. Another source puts the "bare minimum" of buying the club out of administration to be £38m (excluding working capital and the ELF proof of funds requirement). Sobering stuff. Please quote your sources. These days some posters all over the place think because they post something it magically becomes true and somehow loose the ability to say where they get their information from. Untill I hear otherwise I am going with what the administrator says angieram, Carnero and Carl Sagan 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sussex Ram Posted September 30, 2021 Share Posted September 30, 2021 1 hour ago, PistoldPete said: The thing is with Hmrc, if they liquidate the club that means no more Paye from players wages . Which makes no sense , and I as a taxpayer leave alone a Rams fan would not be happy with such a counterproductive stance. If they liquidate the club, the players’ contracts assumedly get ripped up, they sign somewhere else, get paid roughly the same, and HMRC get their PAYE again. atherstoneram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They made a profit on transfer dealings I believe in 2020/1 . Probably didn’t think the stadium would be shut for 15 months. If jozwiak hadn’t got fouled in the penalty box against wendies we would be in league one already and We would have lost more than his transfer fee.

The ground may have been shut for 15 months but money was still coming in via the season tickets from those that didn't request a refund and also from Ramstv. It just happened to be Joz that got fouled,it could have been any one of the players, by saying he got fouled is a feeble excuse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never understood why we paid those transfer fees for both Bielik and Jozwiak because at both points it was clear we needed to cut back strongly yet the fees for both were large - we absolutely could have made money on both of them but the timing seemed so wrong. ariotofmyown and Woodley Ram 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
