Am I wrong in thinking that it was Bates who decided not to pay HMRC the agreed amounts then? Did he explore every possible avenue before opting to default? For instance, did he ask the players to defer their wages so that he could make the payments? If not why not? Did he ask Astor to lend him another £1M (since they didn't care about £18M another £1M would have made no difference)? If not why not?
