I see that Josh Stokes joined Bristol City for £250k plus add ons, and then they loaned him back to Aldershot fir the rest of the season.
Thanks.How do you know this Hashtag.....what is your source ?.....Accounts are not public....or speculation based on wage billHow bad is the debt? Likely to be recouped with promotoin?
Despite big cup runs its multi millions.
Chesterfield's accounts are in the public domain, they are legally known as CFC 2001 Ltd and on Companies House. A quick look at the most recent accounts for 2021/2 showed they lost about £2.4m but a share issue and probable writing off of debts has made them solvent. Will be interesting to see where they are up to as of last summer when the accounts are published.
They lost a lot of money then....but that does not necessarily mean they are millions in debt.....if losses fully covered with no strings attached..which I believe is the case.
BTW our accounts are not dissimilar recently, albeit not in the same magnitude regards losses.
Interesting to see how it pans out then at Chesterfield.

Matt's got to be first choice while Ethan's out but since we have the luxury of three keepers at the moment I wouldn't begrudge Ollie a place on the bench as welcome backup.
Thanks for that AussieShaymen. I missed the not for profit bit. Good luck with that. It sounds like you need a philanthropist or someone with a bit of vision.
It looks like the first step is to understand why there's a shortfall of £160K a year and what the chances are of being able to address that.
I take your point about Halifax being a bigger club historically. Really, rather than looking at us you should be taking a good look at how Spirites have managed to turn things around imho.
Reading John Laidlaw's update you make of what you will of Parky's quote. Missing tonight and unlikely to miss several more. Much prefer to face Rochdale with Ethan around. If it's rained off tonight I presume that's the TV money gone. Tricky to chose which option I want.
So how does our situation differ from that of FC Halifax. Are we leasing the ground from Trafford Borough?
I tried to register on the Shay men forum to find out what's going on but they don't seem to be signing up new members at the moment. Probably trying to avoid an influx of trolls
I come on here every week and I don't recall any. I used to use Dawn's kiosk but gave up a couple of seasons ago. Funnily enough I don't miss it.
