What reason does someone have for an offshore account other than to avoid tax

if he doesnt get banged up it sends out the wrong message

By:
No, I'm not married, as it happens. If I was I can assure you that I wouldn't have an account in a jurisdiction which is famous for their, shall we say "flexible" arrangements with a client who wants to avoid the attentions of HMRC.

rosie, funny you'd should mention gerrard. the same fella that got gerrard off just happens to be arry's brief in this case too.

I could have got gerrard off, as could anyone who represented him. Did you seriously imagine he could be found guilty in a liverpool court

By:
it doesnt matter if he opened an account abroad. even if the prosecution proved that the money related to an employment related bonus, contrary to what MM says, they have to prove that Arry knew that no tax was paid on it. when we get paid by our employers we assume that they have paid the tax, Arry cant be expected to know if it has or hasnt been paid. if it was not employment related its upto MM what he does with his money including setting up a fund for Arry to invest. Will be amazed if Arry was found guilty but cant be sure sbout MM.

By:
think it's cos mandaric told redknapp tax had already been paid on the money in the monaco account. hence mandaric could be found guilty while redknapp not guilty
|
|
By:
"Arry cant be expected to know if it has or hasnt been paid."
Well I dunno about you, but it says on my payslip that tax has been deducted. Is it different for football managers |
|
By:
I don't understand why one cannot be found guilty if the other is acquitted? It's the individuals responsibility to make accurate tax declarations not those of the employer.
|
|
By:
well Mandaric and Redknapp claim the monies weren't paid in relation to his job as Portsmouth football manager, the prosecution believe it was and that's where we're at.
|
|
By:
oh I see Regular Fries. What are they saying it was paid for?
|
|
By:
Footie clubs alredy under investigation regards ....EXPENSES ...in an 183 part questionair from revenue .............. arry better watch the party job, and keep receipts for future .....not get off twice ...????????????

Lester piggott 3 years
Steffi Graf`s dad 4 years Wesley Snipes 3 years Boris Becker jammy fecker got away with a big fine Sophia Loren 30 days Harry Redknapp ? deserves to do time but probably won`t IMO |
|
By:
I think he'll get acquitted RAPS, so the 'sentence' element won't even come into it.
|
|
By:
"Redknapp believed he was entitled to the money in addition to an initial payment of the same amount, which equated to five per cent of Portsmouth’s net profit on the deal."
That sounds to me like an employer to employee agreement to me? |
|
By:
oh but then :
"Both men deny the charges, and have told the court the payments were an investment made by Mandaric on Redknapp’s behalf as “an unrelated personal gesture” |
|
By:
That's in relation to a bonus on the sale of Peter Crouch, which is what the prosecution claim was the payment in the Monaco bank account.
The defence claims that money wasn't anything to do with that but monies paid by Mandaric to Redknapp for investments. |
|
By:
yes, that's right mover.
|
|
By:
so like a gift?
|
|
By:
It seems to me that the argument that he doesnt need the money as he`s so well off so why would he do it doesnt hold water.
As somebody at work today said,. you may have had a thousand BJ`s but you never say no to another one |

It doesn't pounf but why risk an STD for one more ****?

|
By:
like i say, i don't think it's a paricularly strong prosecution
|
|
By:
what actually happened to that money in the end? was it transferred to the US like MM said it was for? if there is no documentation to say this money related to employment I dont know how the prosecution can prove its case. was one of the payments exactly 50% of the expected commission he was expecting for Crouch? If my boss was my best mate and he gave my 5K, why would any tax be paid.

By:
Prosecution evidence very poor,surprised that it went to court-must be not guilty.That does not mean to say they are innocent-I am sure the vast majority will think they are 100% guilty.I know what I think!!
|
|
By:
Yes, I maintain my stance that I think he will be acquitted. Would be very surprised if he was found guilty based on that prosecution.
|
|
By:
I am amazed all the fuss there has been, for such a small matter. I expected evasion on a gargantuan scale. Seems highly unlikely to me he will be found guilty.
If he was 'at it', then I cant believe he would only have done it this one time, for this relatively paltry amount. |
|
By:
I agree but it's the high profile personality in the dock.
A bit like the politician getting his wife to take the 3 points for him. It's good copy as they say. |
|
By:
prosecution clutching at straws. FA also praying for not guilty verdict so they can chuck out Capello and appoint Arry part time until the end of the season before he takes over full time.
