Although not every League Two club responded, there are some interesting findings from CFOs across all four divisions into financial affairs of clubs.

Very...I've only just read the first few pages and must look at it in greater depth, but what I've read so far says 1 out of 17 FL2 respondents is in dire financial straits, on the verge of administration - and 25% of the same sample had borrowed, simply for cash-flow purposes, secured against their stadium. That's like paying your mortgage or rent with a credit card and a potential recipe for disaster. Interesting...will read the rest when I have more time. Good find, HP!
