1. | STATUTORY INFORMATION |
Airdrieonians FC Ltd is a |
The presentation currency of the financial statements is the Pound Sterling (£). |
2. | ACCOUNTING POLICIES |
Basis of preparing the financial statements |
The financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis which assumes that the company will continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. The validity of this assumption depends upon the trading performance of the company and the support where necessary of the company's directors and parent company. On the basis that this support will continue in the short to medium term, the directors believe the going concern basis to be appropriate. |
Turnover |
Turnover represents the income arising from the football for the year in respect of gate receipts, advertising boards, sponsorships and corporate hospitality and is shown net of VAT and other sales taxes. |
Season ticket sales are deferred and together with gate receipts and other matchday revenues recognised throughout the football season as games are played. Sponsorship and other commercial income is recognised over the duration of the respective contracts.Broadcasting revenues are recognised when the relevant televised match is played. Merit awards are recognised when they are certain. |
Tangible fixed assets |
Tangible fixed assets are recognised at cost less accumulated depreciation and accumulated impairment losses. |
Depreciation is provided at the following annual rates in order to write off each asset over its estimated useful life. |
Plant & machinery - 20% on cost |
Fixtures and fittings - 20% on cost |
Computer equipment - 25% on cost |
Financial instruments |
Basic financial instruments, including cash, bank balances, debtors and creditors with no stated interest rate and receivable or payable within one year, are recorded at transaction price. Any losses arising from impairment are recognised in the profit and loss account in administrative expenses. |
Taxation |
Taxation for the year comprises current and deferred tax. Tax is recognised in the Income Statement, except to the extent that it relates to items recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity. |
Current or deferred taxation assets and liabilities are not discounted. |
Current tax is recognised at the amount of tax payable using the tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date. |

Deferred tax |
Deferred tax is recognised in respect of all timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet date. |
Timing differences arise from the inclusion of income and expenses in tax assessments in periods different from those in which they are recognised in financial statements. Deferred tax is measured using tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the year end and that are expected to apply to the reversal of the timing difference. |
Unrelieved tax losses and other deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent that it is probable that they will be recovered against the reversal of deferred tax liabilities or other future taxable profits. |
Grant income |
Grants relating to tangible fixed assets are recognised in the Income Statement based on the performance method as permitted by FRS 102. |
Pension costs and other post-retirement benefits |
The company operates a defined contribution pension scheme. Contributions payable to the company's pension scheme are charged to profit or loss in the period to which they relate. |
Player registrations |
The directors have considered the FRS 102 Section 1A accounting standard in respect to the valuation of intangible assets, including football players registrations. FRS 102 Section 1A requires intangible assets to be incorporated into the balance sheet and amortised over their useful life. |
The directors, given the present stage of the development of the club and the market in which it operates do not consider it prudent to recognise the value of player registrations at this time. |
Costs associated with the acquisition of players' registrations are included in profit or loss in the year in which they arise. |
Impairment losses |
At each reporting date fixed assets not carried at fair value, like plant & machinery, fixtures & fittings and computer equipment, are reviewed to determine whether there is an indication that an asset may be impaired. If there is an indication of possible impairment, the recoverable amount of any asset or group of related assets, which is the higher of value in use and the fair value less cost to sell, is estimated and compared with its carrying amount. If the recoverable amount is lower, the carrying amount of the asset is reduced to its recoverable amount and an impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss. |
If an impairment loss is subsequently reversed, the carrying amount of the asset or group of related assets is increased to the revised estimate of its recoverable amount, but not to exceed the amount that would have been determined had no impairment loss been recognised for the asset or group of related assets in prior periods. A reversal of an impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss. |
Interest free loans from related parties |
Loans provided to the company from related parties in the year have been made under no formal agreement. The directors and other group company's have provided these loans on an interest free basis and are repayable on demand. |

9. | CONTINGENT LIABILITIES |
Subsequent to the financial year end, the club and a director successfully defended a claim by an employee alleging racial discrimination. At this time a formal appeal has been lodged and there is no certainty of the outcome. Due to legal process in progress, there is little more detail that can be provided except post year end legal expenses amounting to £10,525 which have already been incurred as part of the defence of the claim. Attention is therefore drawn to the circumstances and the contingent liability relating to them. |
