Big Rangers Administration/Liquidation Thread - All chat here!


Recommended Posts

It's great to see the justice system take a common sense approach to this, rather than pander to the weasely conniving of accountants threading their way through loopholes.

All tax cheats should be treated with the same disdain.

So just so I have it straight:

Found to be cheating on a grand scale.

In need of 2.5 million to see out the rest of the season.

Shyster owners credibility being rightfully questioned.

Have I missed anything?

It wasn't Rangers who avoided paying tax. It was the employees.

So rangers were accessories before the fact - still illegal.

Otherwise, we'd be banging up drug users and letting the dealers go free.

ETA: A long way from the best analogy, but I've had a stressful "arguing with management buffoons" type of a morning. :(

Mind you, the Horde are hurting :thumsup2 .

They can look on the bright side. Wur Warbs has said he won't hesitate to spend £1m on a player in January. All fine on the good ship the ranjurs as it sails into the iceberg of calamity!!!

No, it is the employers responsibility to remove income tax at source.

Indeed, and I maybe didn't word my post well enough, I was trying to clarify/point out that the tax due was actually that of the employees.

Rangers didn't actually evade tax, they put in place a scheme which enabled their employees to evade paying it on their remuneration.

The company did evade tax. They did not pay employers NI.

Again, No. Both the employees and employer gained financial advantage from the illegal non-payment of income tax and national insurance contributions, but it is the employer that is culpable. From the court ruling:

'an employer who makes a payment of earnings or emoluments to or on account of an employee is obliged to deduct tax in accordance with the PAYE Regulations.'

They people who have been cheated here are the fans, the fans of all the teams who payed their hard earned cash year after year to go and watch their beloved club while the cheats bought some of the best players in Britain.

Oldco should have the tainted titles stripped and removed from the records, they cheated full stop, newco should be expelled from the game for bringing it in to disrepute and playing while insolvent and the SFA should resign, the fkn lot of them as they are just as corrupt, Ogilvie, Reagan and Doncaster should walk right now.

Our game needs an overhaul starting from the top.

Lets do it without the fkn cheats " for the good of Scottish football"
