With the football season drawing to a close, Morland Sanders investigates the financial crisis facing Premiership clubs. Many are saddled with huge debts.

One manager says his club's business model of high wages and bonuses simply does not stack up and threatens the viability of the national game.

And the outgoing Football League chairman has warned that the affairs of some clubs are not transparent, making it impossible to determine who the owners are - and the level of debts on the books.

Producer: Samantha Fenwick.
