But you struggle with the very simple concept that the side letters effectively made the EBTs sneakily disguised employment contracts....

Get it now....

William Nimmo Smith has already dealt with that, the spfl QC has looked into it and confirmed that rules were followed to the letter.

What is it that you actually want done here?

Nuns just think if they keep saying it that makes it true. A bit like they kept saying Rangers would never go bust, be liquidated, Not shoe horned into the SPL the list is endless and in every case they've been wrong. 

I wonder why they think their going to be right this time

eery single credible source including every legal expert says we are the same club and it wasnt tax evasion, why do you think you know batter than the supreme court? you are a lunatic :thumsup2

not according to the supreme court it didnt, thats the facts of the matter

 

Basic facts seem to have been thrown out the window recently by people who should know better. Tom English' meltdown on Twitter being a good example.

Rangers have been punished within the rules, they cannot be repunished outside the rules.

The night is young...  HMRC seems to play the long game.

Let's get together in 2022 and see how things are going.  Supporters of The The The Rangers are welcome to contribute.

FFS EBTs are a tax avoidance sceme. Operating them the way Rangers did is tax evasion. 

After 2004, I'd have to agree.  FFS the tax man asked 'you doing this by the book?', and Rangers said, 'we write the book, dude'.

I suspect that's when it started to get a bit naughty.

it was a legal attempt to avoid taxes, it remains a legal attempt as ebts were legal at the time, its you that seems to struggle with this very simple concept, the supreme court was clear its tax  avoidance which is always legal - get it now

exactly, an obvious conclusion to make which some people on the board struggle to understand

it was obvious thats what i meant, nothing shoots that down as the supreme court was clear that there was nothing wrong with what rangers did, it would have been much more suspicious if we had put money aside as that would have been an inidciation we didnt think the scheme was above board

the supreme court stated it was tax avoidance and legal - comedy gold from you

Oh well what do the Supreme Court know anyway. Must be evasion because P&B knows better. Funny how the SC decision was good enough when stripping titles was the talk, then when it was realised it wouldn't effect titles it's now a lot of shite.

Yeah that's right, HMRC had the side letters and emails from Rangers denying the side letters existed.

On top of that they knew it would be unlikely to recoup any material monies due to Rangers liquidation.

Armed with all this undeniable evidence of tax evasion they just decided, ah f**k it we cannae be bothered with a criminal conviction here we'll just waste a shit load of the tax payers money and spend 5 years to take them down the civil route for the few million quid that we might be able to recoup.

Even if your mental story was true and HMRC decided to avoid the evasion route for whatever reason, Rangers are still not guilty of tax evasion and still done nothing illegal because there was no criminal case to be found guilty of.

 

Have you never signed a declaration to HMRC?  I would guess not.

BTW, the problem with gaining a criminal conviction is that the ability to penalise an individual or company for the same offence was expressly prohibited by the tax legislation at the time.  Therefore it wasn't in HMRC's interest to take it forward as a criminal Al case when quite clearly there was sufficient evidence to show that the money paid into EBTs were earnings and therefore they could claim both the tax and penalties without the need to prove intent.

The opinions of the SC, UEFA , FIFA ,ASA matter not a jot to the obessives . Phil , john James , monkey tennis and the qc obviously know more than these authorities
