Meanwhile on RM....

Anyone know this guy and can vouch Sammy is a bear and not a plant?

An ass padistra maybe?

Does this mean we're fucked?

Yep.

The existence or otherwise of side letters is absolutely crucial to the big tax case. If there was a side letter, that means the payment wasn't discretionary, and therefore definitely taxable.

We have a winner.

Sammy is a snake in the grass talking to them. Boycott Govan MOT motors haha

Is that investigation over?

In 2006, the Premier League instructed Quest to investigate alleged irregular football player transfer payments. The Quest Inquiry, overseen by Chairman Lord Stevens, involved the detailed scrutiny of 362 transfers. Quest worked with the Premier League, The Football Association, Clubs, Agents and other stakeholders. The investigation involved interviews and questionnaires, forensic analysis of accounts and in depth analysis of documentation obtained from organisations and individuals based in several different countries. Quest provided regular reports to its client, the Premier League, and also made a small number of public statements, as agreed with the Premier League, in response to the strong media interest in the investigation. The reports detailed Quest’s observations regarding various shortcomings in the way transfers were conducted. By December 2006, the Quest Inquiry had ‘signed off’ all but 17 of the transfers. At this stage, it was also made public that Quest had provided certain information to the Authorities. The final Quest Report, publicly available, made extensive recommendations in relation to how processes and procedures should be improved to protect the industry from reputational damage in the future. The Premier League Clubs fully considered Quest’s recommendations and agreed that 31 out of the 38 recommendations had either been or should be incorporated into Premier League or FA Rules. The remaining recommendations have also been addressed in alternative ways. Quest is currently conducting audits of the January and Summer 2008 Transfer Windows on behalf of The Football Association.
