rangers are trying to strike a 10 million deal with hmrc so there will be no need to go in to administration

Believable32 Unbelievable36

At 19.15 on Sunday evening where did you get this information. Go and do the dishes

Agree0 Disagree0

This would make a bit of senseas if we go into admin the tax man would get zilch !

Agree0 Disagree0

I refer the poster to rangerstaxcase.com and may i suggest that he/she contacts DW forthwith as I'm sure he'll be delighted to hear about this option. Listen - he'll 'shaft' you all!

Agree0 Disagree0

I cant wait till i get my next tax bill then contact the tax man and tell him to forget all about the money and i will settle the debt by paying a fifth of what i owe, im sure they will gladly accept it and let me carry on about my business(!)

Frankiebhoy where are you getting the 1 fifth figure from its said it could be up to 49m no set figure as not certain if bill exists you are al just getting into this case to hide away from the state of you're shambles. here's a few other figures 3rd as in you're position or 12 as in the points you are behind or 4th as in 4th title in a row

Agree0 Disagree0

Frankiebhoy, word on the street is that the taxman has tried unsuccessfully to get this money from other similar situations. It would make sense therefore that they look at striking deals to avoid expense legal cases, which won't be straightforward.

Agree0 Disagree0

Rangers offered £10million over a year ago and were told to do one.

Agree0 Disagree0

If you visit the HMRC website there is a section relating to EBT ( employment benefit trusts) Rangers used this scheme. The taxman is offering discussion with companies rather than go to court. Fact / on their website.

Agree0 Disagree0

Arsenal owed them 300 mill if they lost asettle out of court for 13 mill FACT so doubt it wid be 10 would be alot less

Agree0 Disagree0

Rangers used EBT's illegally.That's why HMRC are chasing them.If used legally,no problem.HMRC knocked back a figure of more than £10m offered by AJ.They want he lot.See the front page of tomorrows Daily Record.Sorry to say,told you so.

Agree0 Disagree0

Why would they do that, Rangers have went to a lot of expense to get the tribunal to look at the tax demand - if anyone is brokering a deal - I must be HMRC.

Agree0 Disagree0

I would agree that with the post above and frankiebhoy go worry about your own teams problems instead of being on the champions page, if you actually read the post most or all my fellow bears KNOW the taxman wont walk away with nothing so do us all a favour and go back to actually supporting your team instead of clutching at straws

Rangers used EBTs to pay salaries thus avoiding tax.That's illegal.Allegedly there are documents proving this,I don't know for sure.HMRC will not do a deal,They want paid in full.Also,when McIntyre tried to arrest £300k,the club didn't have enough money in the bank.that's why they went to the SPL,to arrest any monies due to Rangers.That's where the medal story comes from.Important part of all this is that RFC have less than £300k left in bank.We need £3m approx per month to survive.With no line of credit,unless someone comes in with cash,we're in big trouble.If(and it's a big if),club reaches the transfer window,then some of our top earners will have to go,and probably for fees a lot less than we'd expect.This is not about league titles,it's about the clubs survival.

Agree0 Disagree0

Coming to a deal with the taxman is going into admin because you hav'nt payed your debt . so even if you're right it's still admin

Agree0 Disagree0

Blah Blah Blah Blah Blah. So nothing different from what we have heard a hundred times before then. Why is everybody posting stuff about this, wait and see what actually happens. Then you wont have to keep asking people the same questions, forget about it and wait till someone comes out and tells us bluntly, your team is bust, then we can all worry about the outcome rather than the what IFs that are flying around just now, BORED HEARD IT.

Agree0 Disagree0

Coming to an arrangement with HMRC is not the same as administration, don't talk ill-informed snash. Administration means a third party is appointed to reliably run the club; KPMG would be the liklies candidate. It obviously wouldn't be in HMRC's interests to do more to the Bears than a wrist slap. The loss in Revenue from a diminuished Rangers would outweigh any gais clawing the tax back. No doubt this point will be made forcefully to them, as it would have been in the Arsenal case. {Ed002's Note -

Agree0 Disagree0

The Arsenal case was for image rights not the EBT scheme. Two different things. Also the Inland Revenue information does not offer a reduced settlement - only to avoid legal action which incurs a penalty fee. Would they allow you or I to pay a reduced Tax bill - no way...

Have just heard that Naismith could be out for 8 months.

Believable28 Unbelievable38

Ssn says he is getting a scan the morn. graeme

Agree0 Disagree0

Good thing he won us the league before he got injured. Let's hope he's back in time for the start of next season and 5-IN-A-ROW.

Agree0 Disagree0

Who from?,,,the guy standing next to you in the boozer!!,,,jeez

Agree0 Disagree0

No you read the story saying when he was injured the last time he was out for 8 months so decided to make the rest up ! hes not had a scan yet so we have no idea how long he will be out for ! Naismith doesnt know how long hes out for so how do you know ? no name left i see!
FauldsRFC

Agree0 Disagree0

Well said Faulds hate people that read papers then put thier own spin on it

Agree0 Disagree0

Hope not the wee mans a legend

Agree0 Disagree0

No-one...NO-ONE! can possibly know till the scans been done, so stop posting crap

Agree0 Disagree0

Had the referee had the bottle and made the correct decision he'd have been off the park after dreadful challenge on Aberdeen player. That way, he'd have wlaked out of Pittodrie

Agree0 Disagree0

Its a shame that in being so determined to win the ball he has injured himself, however it was a horrible challenge there was all sorts of blood coming out milsoms leg and i dont think it was a challenge he had to make, we are flat when he is not in the side i just hope someone comes in and does a good job in his absence as he is arguably our most influential player though i dont even think it is arguable.
