dmayne7 Posted 15 August Share Posted 15 August 59 minutes ago, Babylon said: A players personal tax affairs isn't "basic due diligence." Basic due diligence would be whether the player is available and whether the player is willing to come if the right deal can be found. All the other stuff isn't going to come out into you get into the nitty gritty of the deal. The fact it was mooted as a massive loan fee and them paying the wages (remember that, when everyone thought that as unusual) suggests the clubs were trying to find a way to perhaps circumvent the issue. The players agent, the player, Rudkin, our club and the other club aren't tax experts, and would be having to exploy someone to help get around it, if at all possible. "To suggest otherwise without evidence is basic denial". The literal reason given for the delay or it not happening is a tax issue, so how on earth can you suggest there is no evidence, that's what we're all going off. Yes it is. Because as a business that regularly operates overseas (in terms of transfers), you must surely have people within the club that understand the nuance and laws that apply to employment of foreign nationals or returning citizens? It's hardly a rare occurrence to encounter is it. What we don't know is it Zaha had this company set up to put his earnings in but otherwise, as a transfer team, you should be clued up on this. Think you've completely misunderstood my last point. I wasn't talking about what caused the issue, but rather talking about who is likely to blame based on the context. The tax issues are obviously the cause but it's one of the involved parties (if not all of them) that are to blame for it only becoming an issue at a late stage. Again, from what we know and what previous evidence we have, it's logical that Rudkin gets the blame. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotch Posted 15 August Share Posted 15 August I'm in no way defending how our club is being run but the tax situation is on the players end and should have been flagged by his representatives early on. Not on our end. It's not our issue. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he’ll score on Monday and do that thing when players refuse to celebrate against their old clubs in a gesture that is supposed to convey respect but somehow just comes across as a bit patronising.
