Latest Takeover Rumour. The Moores / Noell one

[Billyliar9]

They can if they use the Tax Information Exchange Agreement of 2008. Bit of a circuitous route, but can be done

Is that right didnt know that..is that the Government or the PL?

You obviously missed the bit where I was appointed head of DD, think it was sagey that tapped his nose, so it was all agreed to sell. Even the esk was in on it mate.

I must admit my eyes tend to glaze over in this thread.

That land was valued at circa £20m prior to pp and £78m afterwards iirc, the balance was the claimed 'donation' towards construction therefore increasing the value used in propaganda to sway the vote.

Legal or illegal, I don't know. But it displays a contempt for the supporters and a willingness to do what it takes to get the move through. Perhaps that 'type' of business dealing has dissuaded others from interest in the club?

Spot on mate...

They wouldn't want to upset Big Phil surely. Doesn't pay much tax unfortunately but guessing he's good on the old political donation front.

Missing the point mate. If he used BVI and was deemed to be UK resident, could be in serious trouble for what is spare change to him. Not worth the hassle.

Mate, this is where many blues including myself get worried about being involved or supporting without question the various fan groups including Blue Union.

Much of the conclusions drawn are not totally accurate.

For example the book you quote is not Philip Green's autobiography.

He has not bought Everton and nor did he admit to doing so.

Not only does it make it more difficult to join the cause, it makes it much easier for the other side to defend when the inaccuracies are plain to see.

Nothing personal but it dilutes the message.

PS we are all way of topic here. Happy to carry on in the board thread though.

Think you will find, its page 246 Chapter Judgement Day...in his autobiography..

UK Govt is October? 2008 agreement and other agreements exist with other jurisdictions.

Would the PL be able to access this?

 

[Goat]

Surely the PL would have demanded to know?

I dont believe they would just accept "Its none of your business"

 

[hibbo'sclass]

Would be shocked if they could directly. Thinking Data Protection Act here but may be wrong.

Dont think they can mate..not that they are interested anyway..and Greens a government advisor;-(

If the govt seriously looked at UK tax avoidance usage of BVI companies, I agree the EFC purchase is small beer. What we don't know is how disturbed by that, if at all, Phil Green would be in the overall scheme of things.

Yes mate - the book is a biography written by Stewart Lansley "How Philip Green built his High Street Empire" - not an autobiography written by Green.

nothing is in his name, it's all in his wife's name through Teveta investments which is registered in Jersey the money then goes to Monaco where his wife is registered as a resident then from there anywhere in the world.

Is it just me, or has 99.99% of this stuff been dealt with on the board thread.

On topic. We want at least a 90+% takeover/investment followed a loan to pay off Prudential, then a rights issue for free money to repay said loan, new/redeveloped stadium, turnaround of commercial revenues stream, lots of shiny new players where required and at the very least a price freeze or reduction for 10 years all done whilst staying within FFP.
