So the CVA is based on 1)money from Green they don't have yet 2)money from a court case not due to be held till Oct which they may well not win 3)money from the transfer of Jelavic So infact 1p in the £1 is probably a little bit optimistic, they currently have NO money for a CVA. Anyway apologies for yet another copy and paste but well worth a read. I did think at the time that Dodd's article was a bit strange: http://scotslawthoughts.wordpress.com/2012/05/29/billy-dodds-witness-for-the-prosecution-and-a-smoking-gun/

Motherwell:

or they hit with them with a sanction.................... How about a signing ban?

I think he only penalised sellick if Juninho played as jmo said. In any case apparently this payment was made when he left the tims so not clear that they would get penalised even if the spl were minded to do anything about it. Would be great to see the tims approach the spl/sfa and hold their hands up looking for the punishment. A few games one season is no big deal to them but then sets a clear precedent to hammer the fuck out of the huns

He might have a long wait. There must be 1000s of ST holders up and down the country holding fire till they see what happens. Apparently the tims have already extended their deadline.

So Celtic admitted the EBT payments were not discretionary and thus paid tax on this, good, that's what rangers had the opportunity to do years ago but decided instead to waste time and money appealing the decision. But does this also clearly show that Celtic did not declare these payments with the SFA thus did not meet their regulations regarding player registration and therefore were playing an ineligible player? When can we expect their punishment?

The BBC programme suggested it was the Too-gay deal as Souness was at Blackburn at the time and bought him a few weeks later. I think there have been questions about the Boumsong deal for years. According to someone on P&B it was that deal that triggered HMRC's interest in the huns in the first place. They knew the deal was rotten to the core but couldn't prove it, they then discovered the EBT scam.

Billy Dodds denying he knew about EBTs: http://soundcloud.com/celticresearch/ebt-dodds/s-ItEEn Edit to add I forgot to mention Sir Minty getting KB'd by Joanna Lumley.

Off to watch Newsnight, with the comedian Paul Murray featuring. Meanwhile: http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-glasgow-west-18148818

My take on the BBC show. Alot of the stuff mentioned was already known and out there but the show gave a good over view of the situation and came up with a few more nuggets. The EBTs seem to have been as widespread as suggested and I can't see anyway that the Huns will win the BTC (but then I don't think anyone ever thought they would). The burden of proof required is significantly below a criminal case and the only question is just how big a bill will they get. The double contracts I think is less clear and Daly used some choice editing of sources to suggest they existed but I'm not sure we've had the smoking gun yet. Of course with Rangers seemingly helping Doncaster to slow the investigation to an absolute crawl, and so many players and officials to investigate we may struggle to get any resolution before rangers are liquidated. The real shocker was just how involved D&P were with the takeover, which makes their case against Whyte's lawyers superfluous. Their running of the administration process has been bizarre from week one, when compared to previous similar situations, and I would imagine HMRC and or Ticketus will be considering trying to get them removed from the process. Other than that we had the hilarious figure of Andrew Ellis claiming Whyte had told him Prince Michael of Monaco was behind the rangers takeover, a pornographer designing the huns ebt scheme, Souness getting a payment via EBT while manager of Blackburn (eh?) and suggestions that despite all his bluster Murray never actually put a penny into rangers, instead using the "bonkers" HBOS. Oh and what a great soundtrack we had. The cherry on top is that Rangers Media has decided that Sammy the hun featured is actually a Tarrier actor plant. Superb

On my phone so can't post a link but the spl statement early today suggested to me the huns are withholding documents from doncaster's independent inquiry.

This has to be one of the dumbest stories I have ever seen, and if you were looking for an example of the way Scottish sports "journalists" cover the game to it service the old firm hordes this is it.
