der Berliner 3,290 Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 Just out of interest, after how many years become e.g. such contract issues time-barred? And as we all know, these were not payments to the players related to playing football, but to pay them for their stay in Scotland's hostile environment, wheater and Hooped Horror-wise ... 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juancornetto 1 Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 The SPL are going to fudge this badly, all the signs are there. If solid indisputable evidence existed of dual contracts this would have been over long ago and we'd be fighting over which titles should be stripped. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigy 0 Posted May 31, 2012 Share Posted May 31, 2012 The wording in these articles really pisses me off to be honest. It's almost like the reports are saying: SPL 'Did you have 2 contracts for each player and if so can we see them?' Rangers 'Yes, there you go, have both of them!!' SPL 'Thanks, you're guilty' Rangers 'Uh, ok.' It's so bloody ridiculous. The big tax case basically relates to whether the EBT payments were tantamount to contractual payments, not whether we physically had two contracts. That would have been wrong, and we're not that stupid otherwise the tribunal would have reached it's decision pretty bloody quickly. The way it's reported is so unbalanced and un-informative it's unreal. If only we had one decent journalist in this country who could report the facts of the case, explain the arguments on both sides, and let people know where the disagreements lie we'd live in a much better place. All we have is two-bob tabloid journalists looking for the next big sensation and not giving two hoots whether it's accurate or not. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crimson Dynamo 128 Posted June 1, 2012 Share Posted June 1, 2012 (edited) Does any club have to declare "how" they will pay players? Or just the fact that they will pay players? For example if the contract states they will be paid £1million pound a season does the contract have to break down where that money comes from?

The EBT's won't be in the contract as the point was it wasn't contractual. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
