Damn. Missed it. What words would you recommend I type into a Google search?

 

Ta very much

 

Edit: it's OK....found it..... ;-)

 

It would be a shame if our loyal readers missed thestory.ie we wouldn't be able to have a laugh at Pompey....

 

So we reckon the media are in receipt of this information but can't publish because the court case is on-going? Pointless sending any links or hints to likes of David Conn at the Guardian?

 

Isn't that why we have PMs? ;)

 

HELP!

 

can someone point me in the right direction? I have tried googleing the court numbers but cant find anything.

 

Some forums reckon arrys got 13 weeks of bird!

 

Any help would be most appreciated. I am more than happy to send this viral...

The interesting point of issue in the court cases may not be anything to do with 'Arry or Milan, but possible indications that monies may have been paid to a player in manner that may not be compliant.... (A method of trying to be obscure to avoid being deleted)

 

If this sort of practice was under investigation in a court of law it is quite likely that it would not be premitted within the FA rules.

 

Dodgy payments to players or Agents is much more likely to be a thing to worry about when it comes to points deductions. there are really strong reasons why FA rules expect everything to be clean and above board.

 

Who knows if 'Arry will be in for a spot of Ornithology would be amusing for us, but the remains of a smoking gun would be worth much closer attention methinks as far as the future squad size or other possible fines & penalties.

 

Of coure I'm sure new owners would then go through lengthy appeals processes, possibly all the way up to CAS.

 

Looks good for the next few months. Now to get my fricking credit card delivered AGAIN so I can re-activate Paypal

......Pompey have written off the hope of new faces arriving before tomorrow’s Championship curtain-raiser at Middlesbrough.

 

But Steve Cotterill still wants five players in before the close of the transfer window at the end of the month.

 

And one of those men could be veteran Christian Dailly, who is training with the squad as they gear up for their opener at the Riverside.

 

The 37-year-old has linked up with Pompey after failing to agree a new deal at Charlton, for whom he played 39 times last season.

 

Blues boss Cotterill admits he may have to look at short-term options, with it clear he is still short on numbers.

 

37 :rolleyes:

They will have the pages already laid out, complete with specially designed "pompey in crisis" header with their crest spit in half.

Ah, a link, or any written copy would be great if possible, chaps!

 

ho ho ho

 

Well, I tried to cut and paste - wouldn't work. So I tried to save the file - wouldn't save. And, as I said, I can't even get onto the front page now. Try using the information in my previous post, maybe you'll have more luck than me.

The original source for the documents was here. If you type mandaric in the search archive box, you can download the documents for $10.

Is there such a thing as the internet police who can shut down Irish websites?

One strange thing. I'd had the original web page open and this was the link I tried to copy you in to. When it wouldn't work, and I tried all the stuff I've mentioned above, I assumed the page was dead. However, a link on the page (to a comment about the article) worked. When I tabbed back, the original web page had gone!

 

Bizzarre!

Harry Redknapp, tax evasion and Mandaric’s ‘offshore account’

 

By Gavin Sheridan – August 3, 2011

New here? You may consider subscribing to our RSS feed or for updates via email.

 

I recently obtained interesting documents from a Florida court which outline further details of the investigation into tax evasion by people formerly associated with Portsmouth Football Club.

The investigation is part of ‘Operation Apprentice’ a long standing investigation into alleged football corruption. In 2007, then Portsmouth chief executive Peter Storrie was arrested — along with then manager Harry Redknapp, then club owner Milan Mandaric (now owner of Sheffield Wednesday), agent Willie McKay and former Portsmouth player Amdy Faye — over allegations of corruption. The five men were arrested on suspicion of conspiracy to defraud and false accounting.

Last year Redknapp, who is the current manager at Tottenham, was charged with “two counts of cheating the public revenue of an estimated £40,000 after voluntarily attending London’s Bishopsgate police station”. Redknapp has been touted as a successor to Fabio Capello as England football manager. According to The Independent:

Charges concerned two payments, totalling 295,000 US dollars, alleged to have been made from Mandaric to Redknapp via a bank account in Monaco, evading the tax and National Insurance contributions due between April 1, 2002 and November 28, 2007.

Mandaric, now chairman of Leicester, was charged with tax evasion relating to the payment of 295,000 US dollars to another person via a Monaco bank account, evading tax and National Insurance.

Storrie was charged with concealing a signing-on fee for ex-Portsmouth player Amdy Faye by paying it into the midfielder’s bank account.

The allegation related to the transfer of Faye from Auxerre to Fratton Park for £1.5million in August 2003.

For his part, Redknapp sought to have the case against him dismissed in November last year.

Not really when the Luton directors faced 50 different charges and were deducted 10 points in relation to these, and Storrie (of who I believe is the only court case that relates to PFC) faces 2 charges

 

Yes, but don't forget the Cheats go for quality over quantity. :D
