Are our 2010 football world cup dreams fit for business?

by: Rebecca

May 6th, 2010

Are our 2010 football world cup dreams fit for business? A national obsession has begun regarding the health and welfare of our 2010 world cup squad. I thought it would be interesting to take a different approach and review a company health check of the Limited Company involved in the world cup, the Football Association LTD.

As the FA is a large corporation, analysing its health is a complicated business. To gain a full and accurate picture we need further information from the FA and expert analysis on the filing information held at Companies House. Think of this info as the initial observations from a worried mother rather than the conclusions of a specialist medical consultant!

I sincerely hope our team are in better shape than this report. The headlines are:

Age: 106

CCJ’s: none

Credit score: low

Employees: 544

Turnover: £206145000

Gross Profit: £17487200

Profit after tax: -£12241000, there is a lot of borrowing and profits are affected by the interest payable on loans.

Accounts: The latest accounts show a decrease in pre tax profits.

Shareholder funds: Despite the decreased profits shareholder funds increased to £18064400.

Assets: The negative current assets less current liabilities on the balance sheet are not a great sign.

You can download the full report from our website http://www.duport.co.uk/credit-reports/order.php

Can anyone provide any insight regarding the fitness of the Football Association LTD?

England word cup squad reserve LTD company names

England word cup squad reserve LTD company names

With over 7 thousand new Limited companies registered at Companies House each week it is essential to ensure that your chosen name is not taken. The following world cup footballers have safeguarded their names as limited companies even though they are not yet trading with them:

  •       ROBERT GREEN LIMITED
  •       JOHN TERRY LIMITED
  •       MICHAEL CARRICK LIMITED
  •       DAVID BECKHAM LIMITED
  •       THE DAVID BECKHAM ACADEMY LLP
  •       THEO WALCOTT LIMITED
  •       WAYNE ROONEY LIMITED
  •       WAYNE ROONEY PROMOTIONS LIMITED
  •       PETER CROUCH LIMITED

You can find out more information on these companies by down loading reports from our website http://www.duport.co.uk/credit-reports/order.php

It’s important for all companies, even those that have not considered a LTD status, to protect the company name. Not only do you guarantee that your name is available should you need to make the transition you will also prevent anybody else from using it.

 It is easy to keep a non trading company at Companies House. You can register the name through us and keep the company dormant by completing simple filing (we can help you) at Companies House. Alternatively you can use our reserve a name service and we will act as your director and complete your paperwork for as long as required.  For more information visit our register a company page http://www.duport.co.uk/company-formation/ or call the office.
