Tax losses are not transferable between different jurisdictions ie UK and India in this case. 

I'm going to need some proof on that one.

Emphasis on unbelievable.

Ross Barkley wouldn’t come to Blackburn  even if his nan was in ICU at Blackburn royal. Let’s not get silly

Be a defender, Hirst and a wildcard (potentially Barkley) told its heavily bonus structured deal around appearances and goals.

Another one who likes being a Premier League player without the chore of actually having to play the game.

I specialised in corporate tax for more than 30 years. Is that good enough?

not really. 12 goals a season

He did that once. Two seasons ago, and it's just over half what BBD got last season. He never hit double digits in the Scottish leagues.

I have to ask. Where did you hear the Barkley rumour?

Barkley is dreamland stuff but I'm here for it. Would show amazing ambition to get him in. I still think we need another striker though (and not someone like Dykes), regardless of whether or not Brereton stays.

Are you on the piss today Sparks? A busted flush 🤣

If you couldn't see his deterioration then that's up to you mate, taking the piss etc...I saw him go from a good goalscorer to someone two yards off the pace and it was painful.    If it was your money you wouldn't offer him a contract.

I didn't just 1 video of his time at Portsmouth, but I watched few video clips of him during the last few years, but don't forget I am not a professional scout that has access to different number of clips, scouting tools or even go and watch the player live by being at the stadium scouting them  

Understood. Glad to see you don't have me on ignore.

Still say judging and setting hopes based on videos is flawed and a recipe for disappointment with a side of animosity.

I can also confirm that I have heard suggestions that Ross Barkley is due at the STC tomorrow for discussions and further, a medical.

Where from?

What I meant was a number 9 striker who score goals and plays with the width of Penalty area

really? 

Does that fit in with the fluid front 4?

Scores goals is a bit of a stretch. He is a donkey so hopefully if he is coming we can get him signed up for a trip to Blackpool tomorrow.

If we land Ross Barkley in this transfer window, I’ll personally hunt down anyone who says ill about GB going forward. An enormous coup.

Having said that, I reckon it’s about as likely as us signing Ronaldinho was at the beginning of the Venky’s era.
 

Can the rest of us hunt you down if he signs Dykes instead?! 😉

No. Ive been burned by "trust me bro" too many times. If you can link me, PM or no, to some literature about sports teams in particular I'd be grateful.

In his first two seasons BBD scored a massive 2 goals in 40 games, season after 7 in 40.

so we replaced Armstrongs 20 goals with some one with 9 goals in 80 games. Point being that who knows what this kid can produce at this level but he had a really good run in league 1 and was scoring a goal a game after Christmas so maybe decent after all

I find it kind of funny that other names being touted as good signings such as Ryan Hardie who has almost exactly the same stats.

I did a quick google on it many years ago when the tax avoidance stuff was raised, What @alcd says is true. Google it.
