rupert thebear 7 Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 With old Arry being set free and the judgement of HMRC officials being questioned, combined with the fact HMRC have lost their two previous EBT cases.Is anyone else more confident today regarding the big tax case final result?

garycassidy1802 37 Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 The Redknapp case was completely different. Although it is encouraging to see that the court won't always swing in the way of HMRC. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

rupert thebear 7 Posted February 9, 2012 Author Share Posted February 9, 2012 Yeah, I know they are different, jury trial for a start, but my point was "judgement of HMRC officials being questioned" Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Der Hammer 160 Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 The quote yesterday by the HMRC guy outside court seemed to be "we know we lost but we are letting others know we will keep trying". A stupid quote by an organsation who seem to be chasing everybody they can to get money because the government need to scrape every barrel after the banks fucked up bigtime.Rangers will win the case,of that i am mega confident as i think we are just another "hopeful" HMRC money chase. Also heard that £8 million has been spent chasing people through court and there has been not 1 conviction. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guardian 4,281 Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 Totally different case, but it does prove that HMRC take on cases they don't win.They had seemingly overwhelming evidence and still lost.It will worry the tattyhowkers that HMRC got beat. They are quick to crow when HMRC take action, so this must be devastating for Torbetts team. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Misteral 2,932 Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 They had seemingly overwhelming evidence and still lost.They had to prove 'on the balance of probabilities' that Harry knew the money was work related.

smitzer007 198 Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 If HMRC was a private company they wouldn't be so cavalier with 90% of the cases they are pursuing but because it's public money that's being spunked away then they will carry on chasing any lost cause till they get a result, or until the amount of money their continued failures are costing the tax payer gets picked up by the media. Lets hope and prey that we're not the first notch on their bedpost ! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MosesMcNeil 1,664 Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 Is anyone else more confident today regarding the big tax case final result?I was always confident.The Rangers will go on - of that there is zero doubt.That fact must absolutely burst the fucking arse of those who fantasise about anything else happening Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperAllyLeeds92 0 Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 what's got 4 legs and more money than rangers. harry redknaps dog.lol, made me laugh2 different cases as mentioned, but I do wonder if it would have any influence on the judges sitting on our case, another half-baked hmrc case Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ricky_ 893 Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 HMRC are makign clowns fo themselves.how unreasonable was it to go after Redknapp. His legal team claim he has paid of 8m in his career in tax (which i fully believe).Also seen a shot of his london mansion, i imagine the council tax on that is a fair penny too.yet they raid his house at 5 am and 5 years later take im to court over unpaid tax on a 180k bank transfer?Thye more or less admitted in their losing speach "let this be a warning to anyone who has money paid in off shore accounts, talk to us before we talk to you".Nothing more than a scare mongering publicity excersize which probably cost the tax payer 10x as much as the sum they claim Harry dodged.I hope we beat this case and we give them the 2 finger salute.
