I can envisage many different circumstances and situations in which agents were paid by clubs and not by players, especially when you know the history of the goings on at our club. A decision was made on some of a VAT bill and in a particular set of circumstances re Newcastle. Unless you have some evidence that the circumstances are exactly the same at Leeds as they were in the Newcastle instances decided in that case, then you simply don't know what items would be excluded from HMRCs figures by that precedent. Clearly HMRC do not agree with your assumptions and they at least are in possession of the facts. Would you be having this argument where you defend the club against all comers if we were discussing Readmans liquidation for example ? _______________________________________________ the Leeds List is an unmoderated mailing list and the list administrators accept no liability for the personal views and opinions of contributors.
