AFCW PLC DIRECTORS' REPORT

The directors present their report and the group accounts for the year ended 30 June 2009. Principal activities and business review The principal activities of the group throughout the year were those of an association football club and the related leisure services, including operating bars, catering and functions. On the pitch this was another successful year, with the team going one better than the previous season and winning the Blue Square South championship at the first time of asking, a second successive promotion for Terry Brown and his management team. We also reached the first round proper of the FA Cup for the first time and our game against Wycombe Wanderers which, while we lost, was shown live on television. The results on the pitch were reflected in average league attendances which rose by 23% to 3,219, putting us ahead of seven Football League teams and making us the 89th best-supported team in England and Wales. Off the pitch, there were several major developments. Work on the extension to the Paul Strank stand, including improvements to the stand’s roof, was completed in time for our fifth home game of the season in mid-September. The extension has been well-received and all the extra seats have been sold for most home games. After allowing for certain internal works we decided not to carry out, the project came in very close to the original budget. A large part of the cost was met by funds generated by the club and the Dons Trust. As a result, we were able to restrict our additional borrowing from Barclays to £125,000. This means that, at the year end, we had drawn only £450,000 of the £850,000 loan facility. In other words, there is still a further £400,000 we can draw down. Regarding the balance itself, we have already made sufficient payments to reduce the amount actually owed to just over £383,000.

The loan facility is due to expire at 31 December 2009 which, if we did nothing about it, would mean that the unused balance of the facility would no longer be available to the group. Nearer that date we will have discussions with the bank to extend the facility for a further six months (the maximum period they will normally agree to). If these discussions are not successful then it is the directors’ intention to draw down further sums before 31 December, sufficient to ensure that projected spending on new capital projects is covered. Promotion to the Blue Square Premier league brought with it additional expenditure to meet the ground grading requirements; this work is underway. Most importantly, we must install at least two additional turnstiles by 31 March 2010 to safeguard our position in the league. Steps are in hand to ensure that the work is completed early in 2010 and, of course, the loan facility is available to fund the work. In addition to all this activity around the stadium, we need to make sure we are ready for Football League status. We have developed plans to make the additional changes necessary to give us a ground that meets the league’s requirement while also considering our longer term options for a new stadium. We continue to pursue those options and our most recent action has been to submit our responses to Merton’s request for comments on its long term strategy for the borough. Turning to our finances, a key measure for many companies is earnings before interest, taxation, depreciation and amortisation (‘ebitda’) although, regrettably, it isn’t a figure that can be shown simply in our profit and loss account. It is arrived at by adding taxation (nil), net interest (£27,363), depreciation and amortisation charges (£115,043 and £21,765 respectively – see note 3) to the operating profit for the year. This year, the result is a profit before depreciation and interest of £179,406, a healthy increase on last year’s £115,379. After deducting taxation, net interest, depreciation and amortisation, the end result was a profit of £15,235 - we are a football club that makes a profit!

AFCW PLC DIRECTORS' REPORT - continued

Principal activities and business review (continued) Looking at some areas in more detail, Note 2 shows that the aggregate turnover for the year was £1,720,601, an increase of nearly £330,000 (i.e. 23%) compared to last year. The main reason for this is a £250,000 increase in gate income and prize money, as shown below, in round thousands:

Fee for televised game £75,000 Increase in matchday takings 90,000 Increased season ticket income 64,000 Sundry amounts, net 21,000 £250,000

The increase in matchday takings reflected higher prices on the gate and a 53% rise in the numbers of people paying at the door. The increase in season ticket income was due to sales being 10% up on the previous year and prices also increasing as we entered the Blue Square South. Whenever gate income is high, merchandise tends to follow, especially in a season when we launch two new replica shirts; last year was no different. Commercial had an outstanding year, with its major sponsors, Sports Interactive, Cherry Red Records, Paul Strank and Tempest, continuing their support, for which we thank them. Nonetheless, this performance will be hard to replicate in 2009-10. By the time these accounts are published we will be over four months into the 2009-10 season and therefore it is appropriate to comment on successes on and off the pitch, which have continued into the new season. Manager Terry Brown has built a young, athletic team which has made a fine start to the season and this bodes well for the future. Its qualities have been noticed elsewhere and we recently saw one of our young stars, Chris Hussey, move on loan to Coventry City with a view to a transfer in the New Year. At the time of writing we had just reached the first round proper of the FA Cup for the second successive season and been rewarded with an exciting tie at League One club, Millwall. It is our continuing practice to assume we will be knocked out of every cup we enter at the first stage, so the proceeds even before we play Millwall are already double the entire budget for cup games this season. Off the pitch, at the time of writing we had sold over 2,500 season tickets, an astonishing increase of over 50% on last season. We have made it easier for fans to buy season tickets, introducing a direct debit scheme; nearly 400 have taken advantage of this. After eight home league games, average gates were over 3,800, an increase of nearly 20% compared to last season’s average, reflecting the excitement of a new league and the quality of football we have been playing. This average gate made us the 81st highest in England and Wales. Looking forward, we face several challenges and risks. In particular, we continue to match wage levels to the income levels we are confident we can generate. We are also aware that if we are to continue to succeed on the pitch, we will put even greater demands on the stadium and we have plans to make sure we can improve it at the necessary rate to match whatever progress we make on the pitch. The current economic environment is of concern and it is taking its toll on some clubs. However, in the light of the financial position of the Group at the balance sheet date and at the date of signing the accounts, the Group’s current forecasts of the results for 2009-10 and subsequent cash flows to at least 31 December 2010, the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Group has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future.

Directors' responsibilities for the accounts The directors are responsible for preparing the directors’ report and financial statements (which we refer to as accounts) in accordance with applicable law and regulations. Company law requires the directors to prepare accounts for each financial year. Under that law, the directors have elected to prepare the accounts in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice (United Kingdom Accounting Standards and applicable law). Under company law the directors must not approve the accounts unless they are satisfied that they give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the company and of the profit or loss of the company for that period. In preparing those accounts, the directors are required to:-

• select suitable accounting policies and then apply them consistently;

• make judgements and estimates that are reasonable and prudent;

• prepare the accounts on the going concern basis unless it is inappropriate to presume that the company will continue in business; and

• state whether applicable UK Accounting Standards have been followed, subject to any material departures disclosed and explained in the financial statements.

The directors are responsible for keeping adequate accounting records that are sufficient to show and explain the company’s transactions and disclose with reasonable accuracy at any time the financial position of the company and enable them to ensure that the financial statements comply with the Companies Act 2006. They are also responsible for safeguarding the assets of the company and hence for taking reasonable steps for the prevention and detection of fraud and other irregularities. Dividend In the light of the results for the year, the board is not proposing the payment of a dividend. Auditors BDO LLP have indicated their willingness to continue in office as auditors and, in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act 2006, it is proposed that they be re-appointed.

The financial reporting framework that has been applied in their preparation is applicable law and United Kingdom Accounting Standards (United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice). This report is made solely to the company’s members, as a body, in accordance with sections 495 and 496 of the Companies Act 2006. Our audit work has been undertaken so that we might state to the company’s members those matters we are required to state to them in an auditor’s report and for no other purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we do not accept or assume responsibility to anyone other than the company and the company’s members as a body, for our audit work, for this report, or for the opinions we have formed. Respective responsibilities of directors and auditors As explained more fully in the statement of directors’ responsibilities, the directors are responsible for the preparation of the financial statements and for being satisfied that they give a true and fair view. Our responsibility is to audit the financial statements in accordance with applicable law and International Standards on Auditing (UK and Ireland). Those standards require us to comply with the Auditing Practices Board’s (APB’s) Ethical Standards for Auditors. Scope of the audit of the financial statements An audit involves obtaining evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements sufficient to give reasonable assurance that the financial statements are free from material misstatement, whether caused by fraud or error. This includes an assessment of: whether the accounting policies are appropriate to the group’s and the parent company’s circumstances and have been consistently applied and adequately disclosed; the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by the directors; and the overall presentation of the financial statements. Opinion on financial statements In our opinion the financial statements:

• give a true and fair view of the state of the group’s and the parent company’s affairs as at 30 June 2009 and of the group’s profit for the year then ended;

• have been properly prepared in accordance with United Kingdom Generally Accepted Accounting Practice; and

• have been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006.

AFCW PLC NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2009

1. Accounting policies a. Accounting basis The accounts have been prepared under the historical cost convention and in accordance with applicable accounting standards. b. Going concern To ensure that the AFCW PLC Group had sufficient funds for its capital projects the shareholders voted in 2007 to increase the Company’s loan facility with Barclays Bank from £600,000 to £850,000; the Group also extended the repayment period from 10 to 15 years. At 30 June 2009 the Group had drawn down only £450,000 of the facility (thanks to monthly repayments the amount owed at that date was just over £383,000). There have been no further draw downs since the year end. The loan facility is due to expire at 31 December 2009 and after that date no more may be drawn down unless the facility is extended. The Group is confident that such an extension will be negotiated. If the facility is not extended, then it is the directors’ intention to draw down further sums before 31 December 2009, sufficient to cover the costs of the work which is needed to ensure that the stadium meets the ground grading requirements. In the light of the above, the cash and working capital position of the Group as at the date of signing the accounts, and the Group’s current forecasts of the outturn for 2009-10 season and subsequent cash flows to at least 31 December 2010, the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Group, and hence the Company has adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. As a result, the directors consider that it is appropriate to draw up the financial statements on a going concern basis. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that would result if the going concern basis of preparation were to become no longer appropriate. c. Consolidation basis The group accounts consolidate the accounts of AFCW PLC and all its subsidiaries. As permitted by section 230 of the Companies Act 1985, no profit and loss account is presented for AFCW PLC. The Group loss for the year includes a loss after tax of £923 (2008 – a loss of £3,826) which is dealt with in the financial statements of the parent company. d. Turnover Turnover represents gate receipts, commercial and other income associated with the principal activity of running a football club, owning a football stadium and related activities, exclusive of VAT. Season tickets and other revenues relating to future periods are accounted for in the period to which they relate. e. Intangible fixed assets The cost of players' registrations, comprising transfer fees payable and signing on fees if any, is capitalised and the cost is amortised over the period of the original contract to which the registration relates. The carrying value is reviewed to take into account any perceived impairment of the value of the registrations. Contingent transfer fees payable are recognised once crystallisation of the contingent liability becomes payable.

AFCW PLC NOTES TO THE ACCOUNTS FOR THE YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2009

f. Depreciation Depreciation on fixed assets is provided at rates calculated to write off the cost, less estimated residual value, of each asset evenly over its expected useful life as follows:

Long Leasehold Property - lesser of period of lease or 50 years Leasehold Improvements - 50 years Plant and Machinery - 5 years Computer Equipment - 3 years Furniture and Fixtures - 4 years

Assets in the course of construction are not depreciated until brought into use. g. Stocks Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value, after allowance for slow moving and obsolete stock. h. Deferred taxation Deferred taxation is recognised in respect of timing differences that have originated but not reversed at the balance sheet date where transactions or events have occurred at that date that will result in an obligation to pay more tax, or a right to pay less or receive more tax. Deferred tax is measured on an undiscounted basis at tax rates that are expected to apply in the periods in which timing differences reverse, based on tax rates and laws enacted or substantively enacted at the balance sheet date. Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that, on the basis of available evidence, it can be regarded as more likely than not that there will be suitable taxable profits which will exist that will allow the underlying timing differences to reverse. 2 Turnover 2009

A significant number of part-time bar staff work on an occasional basis. The number shown above is the total number of staff available “on call” at 30 June 2009. In addition to the numbers of paid staff described above, there are many unpaid volunteers who carry out a wide range of work. The nature of their involvement varies, as does the amount of time they spend, varying from an hour or two a month to full-time. Their importance to the club’s operations is illustrated by the fact that about 80 volunteers work on a matchday to ensure that everything runs smoothly; many other volunteers work during the week.
