It's not uncommon, I suspect any deal done now would also have adds ons/reductions should we stay up or be relegated this year. All depends how a deal is done.
It would be future income from players already sold - like the remainder of the bowen fee and other sell on clauses. Basically, a lower asking price offset against future revenue. That's my understanding anyway.
Fundamentally that approach is flawed and would definitely undermine the clubs financial performance post any deal. Simplest way is agree deferred payment on a proportion of the debt due to Allamhouse underpinned with a PG.
It's not really accounts shenanigans though as it is meaningless sugar coating. It's the sort of thing aimed at supporting a valuation of the club, but has no bearing on our actual set of accounts.

Any dead bodies buried in there? 2m loss isn’t surprising as the ground was shut for 18months What’s the current total debt?
