I'm sure he can 'point' out where they can improve.

Tax dispute? I thought it was a transfer of money overseas dispute?

Music to my ears, found the last few years at Ewood some of the most boring in my 25 years of going. The obsession with 'no 10s' has led to dull walking football with 6 yard one touch passes into the corner and all the way back out to the centre backs again.

Getting some power, pace and directness in the wide areas would be fantastic and might give our strikers a chance to score some goals.

and you believe this because ?

That can't be true, when we have such wonderful owners, who never fail to sign a cheque.

The reason they were restricted from sending monies overseas was due to allegedly fraudulently avoiding tax to my understanding

Some of those are important players too. Imagine the women's team will struggle this year.

Still folk on here expecting millions to be spent on the mens first team even with stunts like that no doubt.

Club is fucked.

I thought it was for allegedly sending money from India to the UK for purposes other than stated (in this case to buy Neville’s house instead of using it for their poultry business)

This court case in August can’t come soon enough.

I saw the other day we released a hell of a lot of players from the ladies team the other day. 

A few on twitter saying how we'd let some good players go as well.

Maybe so.. maybe that meant that a lower amount of tax was paid than should have been paid?  So many different "explanations" to know what is true and what is not

POTY Lucy Shepherd has signed for a US top flight side.

I’m sure the others won’t be free agents for long.

There are rules around sending money out of India. Think Venkys are being looked at for not abiding by those rules. 
 

It was stated in court docs iirc when the full story broke.

Do when know when in August it is?? 

[Forever Blue]

According to a tweet I just saw the women’s team are now contracted to just 16 hrs a week on minimum wage. 
 

Do WATR have a view on the women’s team?

Jackson is asleep at the wheel.

He might as well be a club employee.

I suggest “Head of Inane Drivel” as job title.
