In real life I have no sympathy for teams that spend more than they earn and get into trouble, it's the tax payers that pay for it in the end.
Maybe this is the one part of the game the developers have got right!

Worldwide I can't say, but here in the UK I hope it's never happened. The game would be a busted flush for me if that sort of corruption went on. *Spain cough cough*
But in the UK players and other football clubs are given priority when repaying debts in administration.
Between 2000 and 2010 just under £40 million had to be written off which was due to HMRC because of the rule that puts the taxman at the bottom of the pile of creditors after the clubs had failed to pay VAT, PAYE etc
The figure for the last four years could well be a lot higher.
Aside from the unfairness to all the other clubs who are trying to play the sport within their means there's something quite disgusting about public services closing down just to subsidize a guy kicking a ball.
