Colchester United lost £3.6 million in 24/25, taking total losses to almost £46 million. The Club has no external debt but owes Robbie Cowling £41 million via his company, that charged interest at 7.25-8.25% last year, which works out at £2.6-£3.3m last year.

@Athers83 They're going back to find the Ormerod money, however with all this technology I'd concentrate on proving Lewisham Seasider is really Basilbob. @BlackpoolFC fans deserve the truth 🤣

Why are we going back to the moon just now? We did it in the 60s and 70s. You’d think that technology had advanced massively in 50 plus years so why only now? Explain it as if I’m really dumb (I’m really dumb) #Artemis

Is a Football Banning Order a criminal offence? No. An FBO is not a conviction. But it usually follows a conviction for a football-related offence, after which the police can apply for the ban. #FootballLaw #FBO

From 4th February 2025 to 2nd February 2026 Premier League clubs paid out over £460m in agents fees now look below to see what the Premier League gave to grassroots football for 2025 c/o the Football Foundation. Please leave a comment below and share this post football family

Great to see the Leeds tram full planning application go in today with an accelerated delivery timeline to 2030-2031. Having the first phase delivered by mid-late 2030s was ridiculous, and I'm glad our regional leaders were empowered enough to push back against central government to get this over the line and underway.

@Somethingnew223 @KieranMaguire There was some discussion on how much of the Archie Gray money was split, with an alleged lump running into the following financial year.

@KieranMaguire Kieran how does £143.7m was it in 3 Year Losses Pre Tax, £143m-£144m squeak into £61m- £63.5m given Cost of Living Allowance. Aldo I'm puzzled the Profit on Disposal of Players so low given Cresswell, Kamara, Summerville, Rutter.

The IFR licensing regime is set to ensure clubs can withstand financial shocks and improve transparency with fans. We sat down with our CEO Richard Monks to break it down and share an insight of what it means for clubs and fans.

@TheIFROfficial Well you've been of little use to regular football supporters, and refuse to deal with the framework criteria you were set out to do. I can see the IFR being another worthless organisation just like you.

Someone posted this on Facebook...so true! Tax his land, Tax his bed, Tax the table At which he's fed. Tax his work, Tax his pay, He works for peanuts Anyway! Tax his cow, Tax his goat, Tax his pants, Tax his coat. Tax his tobacco, Tax his drink, Tax him if he Tries to think. Tax his car, Tax his gas, Find other ways To tax his ass. Tax all he has Then let him know That you won't be done Till he has no dough. When he screams and hollers; Then tax him some more, Tax him till He's good and sore. Then tax his coffin, Tax his grave, Tax the sod in Which he's laid. When he's gone, Do not relax, It's time to apply The inheritance tax. Accounts Receivable Tax Airline surcharge tax Airline Fuel Tax Airport Maintenance Tax Building Permit Tax Cigarette Tax Cooking Tax Corporate Income Tax Goods and Services Tax (GST) Death Tax Driving Permit Tax Environmental Tax (Fee) Excise Taxes Income Tax Fishing License Tax Food License Tax Petrol Tax (too much per litre) Gross Receipts Tax Health Tax Heating Tax Inheritance Tax Interest Tax Lighting Tax Liquor Tax Luxury Taxes Marriage License Tax Mortgage Tax Pension Tax Personal Income Tax Property Tax Poverty Tax Real Estate Tax Retail Sales Tax Service Charge Tax Telephone Tax Value Added Tax Vehicle License Registration Tax Vehicle Sales Tax Water Tax Tax (VAT) on Tax. And Now they want a blooming Carbon Tax! STILL THINK THIS IS FUNNY? Not one of these taxes existed 100 years ago, & our nation was one of the most prosperous in the world... We had absolutely no national debt, had a large middle class,a huge manufacturing base, and Mum stayed home to raise the kids. What in the happened? Could it be the lying parasitic politicians wasting our money? Oh, and don't forget the relatively new bank charges.... And we all know what we think of Bankers. I hope this goes around the UK at least 1,000,000,000 times!!! YOU can help it get there!

@_lfcsb A great effort. We could do with some of this reaction at @LUFC where prices keep flying up and making it unaffordable to the next generation of supporters.

Thousands of supporters have responded to our survey so far on LFC’s ticket pricing 🔴 89% say no to the increase 🔴 93% say no to multi year 🔴 73% want to take action with more wanting to know more Tell us your views here forms.office.com/pages/response…

@LUfansnetwork @RobHarris Good work. Should be helpful to our fellow @lufc supporters. @luscfullerton @LUSCExec @MarchingoutLUFC @lufctrust @TV_WHITES @ludowhites @slilufc @SWILUSC @HampshireWhites

@RobHarris Check out our earlier post about VAR and the survey, there's a live poll on there for you to see if stats are representative. Its a smaller scale, but still speak volumes! #lufc #mot #alaw

Do 75% of fans really oppose VAR? That's the claim by the Football Supporters' Association. But not based on scientific, random sampling polling representative of all fans. It was through a website fans had to chose to click on which could skew to those more strongly with views

LUSN responds to results of FSA VAR Survey, involving Leeds fans, which shows growing loss of trust. 75% of fans oppose VAR in its current form - Leeds fans know why! Read more - lusn.co.uk/var-leeds-unit… @WeAreTheFSA @BBCWYS @apopey @GrahamSmyth #lufc #mot #alaw Your thoughts?

Survey so far: • 89% oppose ticket price rises • 92% oppose locking them in for years • 93% want fans to have a say every season And 73% would take action. Where do you stand? Have your say 👇

@jslovechild Football themed adverts- canny bag o' Tudor.

I think Big Match Revisited should run 70s adverts as well.

@MatthewDewey17 @alexgress @KieranMaguire Definitely question marks over the club funding but if we're going to moralise then its a big net ;-) FT has been around for a long time however and deserved some respect from its owners

@blackpoolwhite @alexgress @KieranMaguire Basically paid for with fraudulent money. Should of been ceased with the rest of Pilles assets when found guilty. Stole from the poor give to a football club

Fleetwood Town lost over £115,000 a week in 24/25 taking total losses to £46 million over the years #sustainable

Things We Learned from the FAB meeting #10 Before you take someone’s matchday away, you show them why. That’s the baseline. If the club can ban you without showing evidence, it’s not a process — it’s a presumption 👇🏾👇🏼👇🏾👇🏼👇🏾 whuisc.com/fab-lessons-10…
