It has been reported that 24 football clubs are in arrears with HMRC, although only Southend United and Reading have been the subject of winding up petitions: https://www.cityam.com/reeves-employer-nic-tax-plans-raise-wind-up-fears-for-football-clubs/

There is concern that the increase in employers' national insurance contributions in April could push some clubs into arrears, although perhaps they should review their staffing levels.
