Eddie Hitler Posted April 2 Report Share Posted April 2 (edited) Their accounts are late again.

Max £3k if they go over six months. https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/late-filing-penalties/late-filing-penalties This doesn't mean they're in trouble and the amounts aren't material but it suggests that the back office is a shambles, based on their past behaviour they probably have an unpaid intern trying to make sense of their accounts. City doesn't file late accounts, Steve as a business man knows the importance of a good back office. Edit: and double those already doubled fines because the football club subsidiary hasn't filed yet either.

fgrsimon Posted April 2 Report Share Posted April 2 6 hours ago, Eddie Hitler said: Their accounts are late again. Likely to be bad they reckon. The new owners have already said current losses are 'unsustainable', which seems to have been swept under the carpet by the masses. Also won't include the new stand shambles which will have gone way over budget and will be in the 23-24 Accounts. and the new owners are supposed to be property developers, what could possible go wrong? 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddie Hitler Posted April 3 Report Share Posted April 3 I noticed an oddity in that the 2020 and 2021 Confirmation ststemenst have been re-filed. In the 2021 refiling nothing shows up but in the 2020 refiling there look to have been major changes to the shareholdings of some individuals, the below being the most obvious change. I assume that is connected to the change of firm being their Company Secretary, who upon taking it over have realised that the register of shareholders is wrong. Hmm. https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/04501223/filing-history?page=1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddie Hitler Posted April 3 Report Share Posted April 3 Having mulled over this the likeliest scenario, that the registers weren't kept properly up to date, makes these corrections a non-event. The correct shareholders haven't missed out on any dividends and any voting rights missed wouldn't have made a difference to Board decisions. It's also not unknown, I was assigned to update the shareholder register of a very well known listed company and the first thing I was told was not to try to reconcile it as it won't reconcile, this was being worked on as a separate exercise, but just to book the changes. The company didn't know that its shareholder register was wrong, albeit only in a very small way. An outside chance though is that there is a more fundamental error in that substantial shareholdings have actually been missed, there will then be a prior year adjustment in the accounts and possibly the last two takeover deals will be revisited. If you paid for a 75% shareholding but only received 70% then you will want some of your money back. As I say though this is highly unlikely and, if the accounts had actually been filed when they were meant to be filed, then this option could be easily shown to be incorrect. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddie Hitler Posted April 3 Report Share Posted April 3 18 minutes ago, Swede said: I mean all joking aside, that is terrible. How anyone can provide "facilities" like this and deem it acceptable is beyond me. I worked with a Plymouth season ticket holder, each season a group of them used to have an away weekend at a game. One season they were in the same league as Rovers for the first time for a few years and I asked if they were going there, given how close it was. He said that the facilities for away fans were so poor the last time they had gone that they had decided not to go back there until the ground was rebuilt. Similarly I went to watch City at Brighton in an evening game when they were still at the Goldstone Ground. It was terrible, the terraces were crumbling to the extent that some had to be roped off for safety and the toilets were swimming in piss. I was never going to go there again, though TBF they were in their last season there as the ground had been sold. It does make a difference. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
