The Tax Disciplinary Panel have received a complained from TaxWatch about the conduct of a tax advisor to Rangers Football Club (now in liquidation), who was named in the findings in Murray Group Holdings v HMRC case – The Big Tax Case. The published report anonymised names, identifying “Mr Red” as a Chartered Tax Advisor and former Inspector of Taxes.
In 2017, long after the club went into liquidation, the Supreme Court found that Rangers’ Employee Benefit Trusts were disguised renumeration and that tax should have been paid on them.
As TaxWatch report:
“In her dissenting judgment, Dr Heidi Poon records how Mr Red wrote to HMRC denying the existence of documents that HMRC had requested under the a statutory request for information, writing in a letter “your belief in the existence of documents demonstrating how amounts contributed to the Trust are determined is irrational and unfounded. I cannot help with your fantasies and the production of a S20 makes no difference to this”. [1] In fact, the documents did exist and had been uncovered by a City of London Police raid on Ibrox Stadium in connection with an unrelated investigation.
“Concluding, Dr Poon stated that Mr Red’s behaviour went beyond what could be described as “a lack of candour”, she said: “It would be judicial to conclude that it had been obstructive and obscurantist, and there is evidence of active concealment of documents… to describe Mr Red as ‘somewhat defensive’ in giving his sworn testimony would be an understatement. On more than one occasion, Mr Red had attempted to mislead the Tribunal”.”
A lack of disciplinary action by the Chartered Institute of Tax allowed Mr Red to continue working in the field, despite the findings in fact disclosed at the Rangers Tax Case and the Institutes published code of conduct. That code now seems more if an aspiration than a reuirement.
In raising this complaint to the Tax Disciplinary Board, TaxWatch have highlighted not just the activities of one individual, but the dirty ‘Water some of the country’s largest companies is prepared to swim in. It also puts in dount the tax industry’s ability to regulate itself.

TM, regardless of how he protected Jinky, as soon as you join a secretive organisation and feel the need to identify yourself as such it then brings your objectivity into question! Being a member of the Orange Lodge or the Masonic Brethren should automatically disqualify you from being a referee. Why did Greig feel the need to identify with him? could it be he was trying to seek an unfair (cheats) advantage, hence the remark cheating is in their DNA. This has been shown over and over.
DEFINITELY A SCAM

Send me your bank details and I’ll get you a visa for Oz

the Australian Open.
Hope your good big fhella?

Very good player was Ian Mc Millan.Shearer,animal.Davis,animal.
This was the team that blighted my early years.Only saw us beat them once in a Glasgow Cup game.Bobby Murdoch hat trick in a 3-2 win.A very foggy day,which I am sure was played at a strange time.My hazy recollection was,I had to skip school.
Anyone remember this.
Big Jummy, there isn’t actually a vaccine passport. It’s just a record of when you had the vaccinations. You can get them via the app or website and show on a mobile phone or download and print or request a hardcopy printout.

I have also had phone calls from people pretending to be from the NHS. They have never got as far as asking for personal details, since when you start asking them pertinent questions they invariably put the phone down.
Beware of these criminal scum. They are as low as a human being can get in their efforts to exploit the vulnerable in our society.
TURKEYBHOY
Don’t remember that BM hat trick game, you’re correct about
Shearer , just a thug, but wee McMillan was very good, players
Like him and Jim Baxter were made for Celtic.

Bobby Shearer thought he was a hard man and liked to put it about. I remember one day at Celtic Park he was throwing his weight around until Sean Fallon, a real hard man, ran right across the park and booted him into touch.
Not a peep from him after that.
Aberdeen v St j & Dundee v St mirren games off .
Always remember back in the day, the green Citizen or the
pink Times on a Saturday night, Rangers swashbuckling fullback
Bobby Shearer feck me??? the only things that were buckling
was the left wingers knees as captain cutlass scythed him down
repeatedly.

Word to the wise. For the second time in three days the mighty Celtic FC will once again be featured on Radio 5 Live from 3pm from a sold out Celtic Park. Wednesday’s match at Tynecastle also featured, giving James McFadden and Pat Nevin a chance to actually sound enthusiastic about the Bhoys. Iain Dennis on the mike
today. Radio 5 has a huge reach in broadcasting terms, World wide in fact, so a real opportunity for the fans to do what we do best which is support Glasgow Celtic from Glasgow. Wednesday’s derby also on BBC’s great sports channel. So, for all those lucky enough to have a ticket for the game today…….lets hear it for the Bhoys!
FRANK DREBBIN
You’re roughly my age I think, two days older than grass lol
can you remember any really tough hard men who played for
the ragers, and I don’t mean the Bairds , Davis’s, Hurlocks, just
thugs with fitba boots
etc but players who went about their business quietly and
Professionally like Celtics Davy Hay, Jim Brogan, Bobby Evans
Et al.

CELTIC MAC
Let’s hope the two commentators mentioned can actually feel
a bit enthusiastic towards a club they are supposed to be affiliated
with 🤨

Celtic, Celtic thats the team for me,
Celtic, Celtic on to victory,
They’re the finest team in Scotland, I’m sure you will agree,
We’ll never give up till we’ve won the cup and the Scottish football league
They come from bonnie Scotland, they come from county Cork,
They come from dear old Donegal and even from New York,
From every street in Glasgow they proudly make their way,
To a place called dear old paradise and this is what they say.
Celtic, Celtic thats the team for me,
Celtic, Celtic on to victory,
They’re the finest team in Scotland, I’m sure you will agree,
We’ll never give up till we’ve won the cup and the Scottish football league.
There’s Fallon, Young and Gemmell who proudly wear the green,
There’s Clark, McNeill and Kennedy the best there’s ever been,
Jim Johnstone, Murdoch, Chalmers, John Divers and John Hughes,
And sixty thousand Celtic fans who proudly shout the news.
Celtic, Celtic thats the team for me,
Celtic, Celtic on to victory,
They’re the finest team in Scotland, I’m sure you will agree,
We’ll never give up till we’ve won the cup and the Scottish football league.
Repeat to fade CSC
Hi Mick. I don’t recall the currants having any players that combined toughness and genuine football abilities like the people you mentioned. Plenty of cluggers who were secure in the knowledge that by and large they would get away with it.
Willie Woodburn was a prime example, although he was so bad that even the SFA eventually banned him SINE DIE.
And an echo from the Celtic end down under.
Celtic Celtic on to victory
For there the finest team in Scotland I hope you will
agree, they’ll never give up till they win the cup
or the Scottish football league.

Stats 3 fouls each in county sevco match.

The Brylcream boy Walsh making sure he keeps his pay cheque.
Anyway, onto our match, looking bright now in sunny Glasgow.
COYBIG 🍀

Oh yea ! big Willie lump of Woodburn, shocking excuse for
a football player.

Anyhows, the bhoys are on in a few hours, last rid biddy, a wee
doze and here we goooooo here we go.

2-1 county HE HE HE HO HO HO
Was Eric Caldow considered a clugger?
Ron. Caldow was a decent full back who could play a bit.
Not regarded as a clugger to my recollection.

Just seen McS##goers howler for Ross County first goal 🤣🤣
Fully expect Walsh to bail out his team here but do yourselves a favour and look up the Ross County goals. Hum the benny Hill theme tune while doing so. Pure comedy. Shambolic goalkeeping and defending.
Wonder what time Sevco will be getting their penalty? Lol
Stand by pen.
Guaranteed
Hail Hail
Stay Safe
Probably worth putting a few quid on the Huns now – hard to see County holding on but we live in hope.
Crocker’s commentary could have been “the sun comes out reflecting how Ross County fans must feel!” or “doom and gloom for rangers but the sun comes out”. He said “At least the sun has come out” . Get my point?
Doubt that the odds for penalty/red card will be generous.
Unless it’s for RC. 😂
Yes, Crocker was getting very agitated the other night when the scorelines at all the other SPL games were 0-0.

As in “my team’s 2-1 down but at least the sun has come out”
Hard as Croker, Boyd and all the cheerleaders etc are to listen to I always feel it ultimately enhances my enjoyment of our victories and trophy wins. Short term pain, long term gain. Get it right roon thum!
Boyd is way too relaxed here by the way – seems like he knows they’ll get some decisions if they need them.
G-D
Do you seriously believe John Greig had to give Tiny Wharton a masonic handshake to let him know he was a brother mason? I suspect he might have already known.
Are WhatsApp groups classed as secretive ?????
