This season

10 points from 12 games; expected finish 15.6. Value in each end-of-season outcome, with FCV's simulated probability:

Promoted£11.3m · 1%
Stays£12.8m · 80%
Relegated£7.2m · 19%

If promoted, the model assumes the club has to invest to compete and may go straight back down; the promoted value allows for both.

How the value is built

Revenue approach: forward revenue of £17.6m × adjusted multiple 1.17x = £20.6m.

Asset approach: realisable squad value, stadium (if owned) and training ground = £10.0m.

The two are blended with a weight set by division, then adjusted by the club's desirability premium of -4.0%, giving £12.8m if the club stays in League One. The live value weights each season outcome by its probability. Full methodology.
