Not really, if no transaction takes place then no VAT is due, surely? You can't have theoretical VAT on non-purchases can you?

 

Nope, hence the reason it's called Value Added Tax as it needs to be added onto something.

So this finally shows that the only reason he's here is to advertise SD. Wouldn't European competition actually help that?

 

Nope, not allowed to advertise anything other than official UEFA sponsors.

 

We did in the Europa League though.

 

Always baffled me why he doesn't go full hog and just stick it on the kits n all. Club could definitely afford it now if they were paying bot all (which they would).

Sure I can remember "£33m" coming from Pardew or Llambias or someone, re last January. Shock horror it was £5m less than that over two transfer windows. :lol:

There will be a spend in the summer

 

in January we had a net £31m spend

 

http://www.nufc.co.uk/articles/20140225/newcastle-united-201213-financial-figures_2281670_3686538

the Club's cash outlay on players was £28.7million

 

the £11.1million it recouped on outgoing players

The Club admitted to the Tribunal that it repeatedly and intentionally misled the press, public and the fans of Newcastle United.

Makes for depressing reading, apart from the Ashley apologists. Just reaffirms that the club is being used to promote Sports Direct, at the expense of the club itself. And since this is successful for him, why would he look to sell as long as the TV cash keeps on coming, along with selling our best players?

 

He's got the fans by the bollocks and knows it too. :thdn:

Ando does what Radio Newcastle tell him, I imagine. If he were too critical of the club, he would find himself out of a job. Radio Newcastle say they aren't the mouthpiece of the club, but I think they pander to them as much as The Chronicle used to.

Hmm not sure about that, I remember the Sports Direct hoardings in the languages of each opposition we faced last season.

 

Champions League may be. :yao:

The fact that he's getting that advertising free for space as a justification for the 'interest free' debt we owe him means he will not seek to get the money back until he sells the club. He's milking money out of the club through lost advertising yet not reducing the debt. I mean I wouldn't mind as much, but don't call it interest free you f***ing obese pig.

 

This.

I dunno. The value of the advertising is still a fraction of the loan. I know what you mean though, it's a dodgy justification for free advertising. They should just say he's taking it as a benefit of owning us, which is normal-ish when someone owns two related businesses.

It may be a fraction of the loan but that is not the point, would it be a fraction of the interest?

Fair point, I don't know how it would compare to commercial interest costs, hard to say.

we were paying the bank 6m a year interest before ashley (- by memory alone mind you).  that was on less than the current loan to ashley.  we couldnt borrow 100m for 6pc, so quite possibly more than that would be payable on a commercial loan.
