TheLawMan 6,240 Posted May 30, 2012 Author Share Posted May 30, 2012 What am I looking at?You are looking at a table showing Celtic players, manager and Directors becoming members and directors of tax haven film companies to allegedly avoid paying full tax.

jonbryce 63 Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 What am I looking at?They are tax avoidance schemes where you pay some money, and get a reduction in your tax bill that is higher than the money you paid in. They tend to get challenged by HMRC and usually they don't work.The only thing I would point out is that it is individuals who happened to work at Celtic who joined the scheme, not Celtic FC itself, and any tax liability would be charged to the individuals.

trueblueal 2,117 Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Excellent. You should send this stuff on to a few friendly journalists. I probably wouldn't bother with Daly. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

fyfe 19 Posted May 30, 2012 Share Posted May 30, 2012 Great find. Sounds exactly like the kind of "one-off" payment Billy Dodds admitted to receiving, and if he's one of the people being used as an example of EBTs at Rangers, then Celtic definitely have questions to answer.

Sounds exactly like the kind of "one-off" payment Billy Dodds admitted to receiving, and if he's one of the people being used as an example of EBTs at Rangers, then Celtic definitely have questions to answer.It's a different sort of scheme altogether.Martin O'Neil would invest some of his wages in this film partnership, eg £50,000. Through some creative accounting, he gets to put on his tax return that he actually invested £500,000. He would claim 40% tax relief on that, and get a tax refund of £200,000. Out of that £50,000, £45,000 goes in fees to the fund manager, and £5,000 goes to the fund manager's daughter to record a youtube quality "film" on her Blackberry.
