    Looks like he's staying.

      Depends where he's resident for tax purposes. Assuming he's uk resident now, he'd have to declare that income and will be taxed on it, irrespective of what bank account it's paid into. If he's Dutch resident, can't see the issue.
      If he's a dutch resident then the tax would be high there too. Also he'd only be allowed to spend 3 months a year in the UK, which seems unlikely given his responsibilities with the club. He's working some kind of scheme but I don't know what.

      As I said, you would need more info and a tax specialist to know if what he is talking about is illegal or not. As an expat with business concerns in the UK and offshore, I know a bit about this. I can't think of a way that Jimmy could be paid through Holland and only be required to pay 10% tax, but then again I'm not a tax specialist.

      • What a mess.

        Keeping on a corrupt money grabber because the Telegraph won't release the full transcript.

        Just get rid FFS and start again, there's too many negatives now for JFH to come back from this.

        - Terrible style of play
        - Baffling team selection and subs
        - 16th in the league
        - No win in 6
        - Beaten 6-0 at home
        - Allegations of corruptness and tax avoidance

        • Telegraph are taking the #### to be honest. Why nor release the full video? Leaving us in limbo.

          I think JFH is bent, in fact I'm almost certain, but the fact these gimps at this rag wont hand over all the evidence means the bloke is likely to keep his job. Mad.

              I work abroad but am uk tax resident. My point was is its where he needs to declare it. He should be taxed on it just depends where. To me it's important whether he's uk or Dutch resident because if he's uk resident, a payment to a Dutch account would mean that he's trying to avoid paying tax in uk and don't declare it.

                Probably because Jimmy has threatened to sue them I'd imagine. Would you give evidence that could be used against you to someone that is trying to sue you?

To be a Dutch resident he would have to live in the Netherlands for at least six months a year which would be difficult as manager of QPR, though not sure it would make much difference if he was away for six months or more.
                  Yes that's likely but not guaranteed. It all depends on how many days he's in Uk during the year. I would say that it is 90%+ likely he's uk resident and therefore paying to a dutch account seems a little dodgy.

                    So we're in agreement that it looks pretty likely that what he's suggesting here is illegal?!!

                      Yes. Not sackable but I just think when you take everything into account, he must go.

                        Or maybe because if QPR's investigation finds no evidence of wrong-doing it then portrays DT in a poor light.

                        Or for the reason Tarbie gave.

                        The bottom line is there's no real reason why it's in their interests to play ball with QPR.

                          Why would they? Qpr investigation doesn't confirm them. If you don't believe then sue them. Telegraph
                          Legal will not have let them release story if rubbish but also likely to advise not releasing full footage. There is no gain in doing so. Annoying yes but i think JFH legal team realized this.

                            If they don't release the footage, what happens next? This doesn't mean that JFH is innocent, otherwise the Club wouldn't have bothered asking for the video. I assume they will have to make a decision based on the information they have.

                            • Why can't we just pick a ####in manager that doesn't get in trouble or even get himself into these situations.

                              In my book, the blokes got himself into this situation of a dodgy meeting, why feel the need? Whether innocent or guilty the Damage is done, he's on the front of a newspaper dragging our club through the dirt. Find a gaffer that is as clear as day and move on.

                                Unless he has a limited company set up in the Netherlands to which he can pay funds from his business dealings into and drip feed himself a dividend? There might be ways to work the system on that where he could release the funds over time as a dividend to spread the taxation. Still 10% sounds low, especially given that as UK resident he should be declaring all income anywhere in the world on an annual basis.

                                Any international taxation specialists on here?
