This season
28 points from 13 games; expected finish 4.4. Value in each end-of-season outcome, with FCV's simulated probability:
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 £2.6m × adjusted multiple 1.09x = £2.8m.
Asset approach: realisable squad value, stadium (if owned) and training ground = £7.2m.
The two are blended with a weight set by division, then adjusted by the club's desirability premium of -3.4%, giving £5.4m if the club stays in League Two. The live value weights each season outcome by its probability. Full methodology.
