Commentary
The club recorded a deficit of £4,141.79 in 2025. The majority of this deficit relates to
one-off expenditure, specifically the purchase of a new dealing machine and bar-coded cards.
Excluding this exceptional equipment cost, the club would still be operating at a small underlying loss,
indicating that day-to-day running costs and income are finely balanced. As a result of this years deficit,
club reserves have reduced significantly and it would be prudent to consider the clubs future financial position carefully.
