Thermopylae 15,286 Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 I can't help feeling thie tax case is castling a long black cloud over the support ... unlike septic who excel at paranoia and being put upon (and so would probably cream themselves at being in this situation) we are proud to be British and the bastards at HMRC abusing their authority in this way does not sit well with us Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bothwellbear 1,392 Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 HMRC are using this as a test case. They have spent too much to turn back now. They know they won't get any money but can use this as precedent going forward. The leaks are a very different thing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dickie 12,905 Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Don't see point in all this.do you just keep appealing until you get the result you require? There are many who are happy to drag this out and publicise it. Pity they aren't so right minded when it comes to state aid or child abuse stories Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guardian 4,281 Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 I keep seeing this but surely they have already set a precedent by now.It's took 3 years fighting us.Looks more like they want to save face by keeping going til they get a result.If they don't, questions will be asked, lawsuits will be filed and heads will roll.

Why did they allow EBT's to go on for so long before acting and why did they let Whyte go on without PAYE for around 6 months. It's a total disgrace!

Big Al 55 9,241 Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 We can't let the malcontent lurkers set the agendaYou been hanging about with bawbag? Of course HMRC had to take this all the way;1. To justify their actions 2. As a precedent for future casesI wonder if they deliberately chose us over the other clubs which have used the scheme.

Thewhitesettler 2,711 Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 I've never worked in the 'Public Sector' & believe that if HMRC were a private company, they would've stopped after the first appeal. However, with it being a public company, it's not their money that they're wasting with all these appeals, is it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluepeter9 5,167 Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 Ffs - hmrc are using us as a test case - it was a split verdict and was always destined to go all the way- that is how law and precedent is set in this country and how it is tested - there is nothing abnormal in this appeal process.
