if they owe a lot of money to other football clubs which they're not then able to pay back

or it makes other lenders to football clubs jittery about their investment and they decide to get out and get as much back as they can now while they still can - even if that means liquidating the football team

or if it's a big bank that pulls the plug and they get away with it (because there is a feeling that no bank would ever want to be the ones to finally pull the plug on a club due to the adverse publicity that'd cause them) then that line would be crossed for all other banks to follow suit
