Maybe a few i’s to be dotted and t’s to be crossed but I think it’s a little far fetched to even think it doesn’t happen. As to going to the authorities(the FA in this instance) would be futile as nobody would no where to start and they would all deny any prior involvement. I suppose the two of you expect any cash payments you’ve made to contractors will be fully accounted for in regards of vat!
According to the rules, Stockton can't talk to anyone until a fee is agreed between the clubs. If he's told our board, as was said in the article, that Fleetwood have offered him a substantial pay rise, then that would confirm that the rules had been broken, either by the player, Fleetwood or his agent, or all three.
I have no doubt, some contractors don't pay all the VAT that is due.
I have no doubt, that if there is evidence of tax evasion, the contractors will be in deep poo!
