Thermopylae 15,287 Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Just posted that they will want a big splash for their first edition ... I guess that's it .So was it our ex player who gave them the letter? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GIJoe 98 Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Yes it sounds like the Sun trying to create a splash. Let's wait to see what really happened. They've seen a draft letter. Who knows what was actually sent. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
theweebluenose 4,335 Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 I also read the main attraction of the new Sun on Sunday is a column by Katie Price, I'll await for hard evidence before panicking. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jig 14 Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Sun on Sunday confirm that there is evidence of side contracts.This is the bombshell we were all dreading. Big tax case will be lost if true. Liquidation is inevitable?Is it? Will it? I have been expecting to lose the case since day one. Surely a repayment plan for any bill will have to be put in place? Why do you think it will mean liquidation? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jig 14 Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 More likely that letter was typed up on Celtic letter headed paper and the player wont be named because he doesnt exist. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

showtime69 514 Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 "This would be manna from heaven for HMRC if they have this. If there are 10 like these and there are matching payments, I'd find it difficult for the courts to do anything other than find in favour of HMRC." then why have they not done so already??

Sicknote 26 Posted February 26, 2012 Author Share Posted February 26, 2012 Is it? Will it? I have been expecting to lose the case since day one. Surely a repayment plan for any bill will have to be put in place? Why do you think it will mean liquidation?A far smaller bill has taken us to the brink of liquidation, stands to reason a far bigger one will throw us over the edge.

54andcounting 627 Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Let me look at this story.Letter in “draft form”So not an official letter then.It is believed these payments may fall under an Employee Benefit Trusts scheme.Yes! That is what the big tax case is all about.Our hard-hitting investigation explains to football fans AND the taxpayer"football fans" = tims.may have broken strict financial rules.Why may? If it had been a “hard-hitting investigation” they should know.Meanwhile a jobs lawyer.All lawyers have different views, that is why they make so much money. "What I understand is Rangers are trying to say there was money paid to the people, but it was not wages — it was something else.Eh! Maybe a bonus. An accountant who we showed the letter to also hinted. “hinted”, that is it then, must be true. I presume that individual has assumed is part of his salary.“assumed” what he did not clarify that.The fact it is there as a back letter at all suggests it is dodgy.“ dodgy” come on, fuck me.Letters like the one we've seen are likely to have been used as evidence.Eh! But they said at the start of the story that:"This would be manna from heaven for HMRC if they have this. If there are 10 like these and there are matching payments, I'd find it difficult for the courts to do anything other than find in favour of HMRC."A lot of Piss .

Jig 14 Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Another 10 years paying for Murray's mental business practices?Better than going out of business surely. £7m per year repayment is huge also, surely it would take longer to pay that sort of debt off. We dont have an owner with a company to write off £50m of it this time. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

markybear 136 Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Well, a new newspaper trying to start with a bang. Although this sounds devastating to our case, they have certainly gave themselves alot of "outs". Ie they are not nailing their supposed "facts" to the mast. There's alot of "may's", "hinted's", "likelys", Also they won't Name who's contract it is. Because they've not seen it.Basically they have fuck all but they are trying to inflate first ever edition sales.They have been well behind in this story thus far, "second to every ball" is a gd analogy. I'm not worried about this, it's blatant sensationalisation to kick start their new Sunday paper Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
