I was listening to the football ramble last night and they were saying that (allegedly) there is a clause in Teves' contract that if City win the league, his wage doubles.

Tell me it's true? :D

10. We should get Graham Taylor back in, best manager we've ever had, a club as massive as ours we should be competing for titles and champions league football, with lerners backing, Taylor would deliver success ten fold! Him and Phil Neal would be ideal, or maybe even get a young up and coming manager as his number 2, someone like Stan Collymore would be brilliant as his number 2 in fact!!! Our fans are probably the passionate and knowledgable in the country and we deserve success to match this!!! McLeish out, Graham Taylor IN!!!

I lolled

Good news, we have some tough matches coming up and could do without this distraction.

Not guilty on ALL counts.

What a crock of utter shit. That jury are fucking retarded.

They didnt really have a case when it came down to it - I cant believe they wasted millions on this nonsense. Somebody at the CPS dropped a clanger on this one.

Except they did have a case because Mandaric claimed it was a "gift" and Harry a "bonus."

The whole case was filled with irregularities and weird lies. Don't forget that Harry initially claimed he forgot about the account that he flew to France to setup.... the whole thing was a fucking farce, it's only the fact that Harry had pretty much the best legal team in the country that got him off.

Nah - they just couldnt really establish a pattern of fraud - it doesnt tend to be a one off - once people start defrauding they tend to go for it in a big way. This wasnt the case with Harry and the generally confused way he handled his money gave it credence that he wasnt actually trying to defraud the taxman. I dont understand why he wasnt just fined by the taxman in the normal way?

So wait, because it's low level fraud cleverly disguised we're supposed to just go "oh well lolz, you played well there" ?

who gives a fuck? everyone hates paying tax. Why does Britian have such a fucking complex with wanting to see anyone who's doing well fall on there arse.

If this wasn't Harry Redknapp but it was Joe Bloggs the bricky that was caught not declaring his cash in hand work would people be baying for his blood? ofc not


It's a pathetic indication of the times that everyone wants to see the famous fail and it's purely down to jealously. You don't gain anything if he goes to jail so why do you give a shit?

I agree with you Gohan and as much bad things as can be said about America I've always found that it goes like this

In America people see someone rich and successfull and say: "That's going to be me one day"

In the UK/Ireland they see someone rich and successful and say something like: "Oh well I knew him before he was rich and he wasn't all that great".

Not so much any more tho. People are waking up to the fact that they're fucking dumb if they actually fall for that shit.

It won't be you :)

It's got nothing to do with jealousy, it's everything to do with cunts who have MORE than enough NOT CONTRIBUTING their bit. I don't care how much money someone has as long as they're not fucking the country over by refusing to pay tax that bears no relevance on how rich they are.

Oh come now Wazzlet, if he was the manager of Grimsby Town you wouldn't give a toss about the case. :)

Not at all true, I despite cunts who deliberately try and avoid tax for no reason other than greed.

I'd be baying for Wenger to go down if he did it too, only he's not a classless cunt and has an economics degree. :]

I bet he's already paid more in tax than you will even earn in your life time. that's a fairly big contrabution. Also if he's in jail he won't be earning any money, so he won't be paying tax, and he'll be costing the tax payers to keep him......


So economically it would be redundent.

What's that got to do with it?

I earn less but pay 100% of my taxes as I should do.

He earns more but arbitrarily decides he's paid enough tax and pays 90%. He's still breaking the law and being a greedy prick. I'm not.

Have you personally had a letter asking you to make up the 10% he's missed on his behalf? If not, why the fuck do you care so much? You'll put yourself into an early grave worrying about things that don't effect you and that you have no control over. Pointless waste of time.
