They understand that talks are at an advanced stage for the sale and/or loaning of their top players to other prem clubs. Looks like the last throw of the dice. Hadn't seen that - I wonder what happened to all the "We don't need to sell" bluster. I reckon they know that the PL won't lift the embargo, so they'll have to sell players to pay off some debts and then (maybe) get it lifted. Even then, they'll have sod all to spend and nothing to pay salaries with, so they'll have a pretty hard job getting any new players in anyway. Desperate times, desperate measures...

hutch Posted 13 January, 2010 Share Posted 13 January, 2010 Could they take Ferdinand (or any other player) in part exchange with the embargo in place?

But once the fans know what we've done and that Ali has put £40m into this club - including paying £12m to HMRC - while only recouping £13m through revenue, I'm sure they will appreciate us. No mention there of Jacob's admission that this £40M consists of (a) loans; and (b) income such as gate receipts and so forth - it contains no new money from the owner. I fully expect to hear that the transfer embargo will be kept in place by the PL. This won't prevent the sale of players, of course, so we can expect plenty of action there too.

I suspect Gaydamak didn't believe they really ever had it which is why he went with the Clown in the first place I think it is pretty clear that he went with SBT simply because he believed that they had found a foolproof methodolgy to hide the identity of the real owner and money man. Munto Finance showed it was possible to simply "not exist" but to get approved as a club owner. Again, the research and effort needed to set up a "shell company" to hide a beneficial owner is simple, remember I posted ages ago about how in the days of leveraged deals even I could have bought Saints with no money (like the glazers/Hicks/Gillet did). My issue was nobody would have believed it was me (it would have been a bank loan) So part of the mess is that they thought they had hidden the man who wanted to move his (allegedly ill gained) assets away from the jurisdiction of his ex country. My guess is that they'd done it before and thought it was easy. It wasn't. So my guess is that yes SBT did have the cash. Unfortunately he managed to c8ck up the cover up and the PL quietly wouldn't let him use it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pedg Posted 13 January, 2010 Share Posted 13 January, 2010 Article about Milan's tax problems in the Guardian: http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2010/jan/12/milan-mandaric-clear-name-charges Interesting in that his main defence is that he avoided paying 10K in tax but that because prosecuting him for it will cost a lot more than that it should not happen.... Mandaric said the figure was closer to "$50,000 which is taxable, which is around £25,000, and 40% of that is £10,000. That is what we're talking about. The cost and expense [of the investigation, which started in April 2007] and all this aggravation and unfairness is far more than £10,000 that someone will have to pay. There is no correlation between the two. I just hope that one of these days someone will wake up and say 'What the hell is going in here?' And I know that will happen because there is no wrongdoing here." Umm, has he not just admitted that $50K was taxable but he did not pay the tax? Sounds like wrong doing to me. Also by his logic shops might as well put up signs saying "If you shoplift anything under 100 quid it will cost us more to take you to court so please go ahead".
