vulva Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 The very first thing they were tod and what made them sign for us was that we have just been relegated and have no money. With respect, what sort of a question is that ?. As a players agent surely one of the key considerations is how financially solvent we are. We all know we're skint, but been taken to court by HMRC is a bit of jump. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freshfish Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 Am i right in thinking, that knowingly not paying your tax and withholding payment is actually regarded as 'Freud'? So the board and the co-op bank actively agreed a course of action that was knowingly fraudulent? Let's not couch and hide this behind the smokescreen of 'common practice'....are the club, with active knowledge of the bank acting fraudulently?

Guest intercity0wl Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 As a players agent surely one of the key considerations is how financially solvent we are. We all know we're skint, but been taken to court by HMRC is a bit of jump. And by all account one that the club did not see coming as they were in contact with HMRC and as such there woukd be no need to mention it. I would not be surprised if this late payment has not happened before and this action has took the club by surprise. We all know we have little money and and this news is not the bombshell to me as it is to some, its not good news but surely this playing of the system is not unexpected and not unique to us..

Paul.. Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 "It is understood that the club knew the petition was looming and have the support of the Co-op Bank." So they couldn't warn us the fans who give a poo poo and get really upset to hear such headlines about our club? Bunch of tossers run the boardroom :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kopman9 Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 Transfer embargo ? Doesn't that mean you also can't sell players ? I thought Pompey were trying to get dispensation so they could sell a player to pay the wages Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeteG_1984 Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 I doubt we'll now get more than Burnley's original offer for Grant now. Probably less, and we'll have to accept it. Should have cashed in the chips Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogers Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 Anyone know how this could affect us: Failure to pay a demand - England, Wales and Northern Ireland Distraint This is where your possessions can be taken and auctioned to pay your debt and costs. HMRC will visit your premises and ask you once more for payment. If you don't pay, they will list your possessions to the value of the debt and costs and ask you to sign it. If you sign it, you have five days to pay the demand before your possessions are removed to sell at auction. If you don't sign, you'll still have five days to pay before your possessions are auctioned, but your possessions will be removed there and then. You will also have to pay extra costs. If your possessions are auctioned for more than the amount you owe (including any extra costs of removing and selling them) you'll be paid anything left over. If they're sold for less, you will still have to pay the difference. let's auction Tommy Spurr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope you're right, but if I was one of the clubs bidding I'd now fancy my chances of starting the bidding lower than this time yesterday.
