A guy from the year above me in 6th form seems to be doing well at Stade Francais, he's played a few games this year and played for England U20s recently too. Someone from my year is at Leeds Carnegie as well IIRC, and scored for them in the Twickenham Sevens last year.

The difference is that HMRC aren't chasing unpaid tax from those "two biggest football teams".

Debt, per se, is not a problem. It's debt that you can't repay that is the issue. Granted, HMRC are getting more tetchy with sports clubs over unpaid tax but issuing a winding-up order isn't exactly the first step they take to reclaim what they're owed.
