Why is a loan from one company to another fiddling tax revenues? The recipient company pays no tax on the loan received and the lending company gets no tax relief on the amount loaned.It's shameful that owners are allowed to loan football clubs without paying corporation tax on monies.
If it was out of their own pocket(money that the tax man has collected from) then no issue they can put in however many millions they want this is just a way of fiddling tax revenues.
How on earth are Fleetwood ever going to pay it back they can't so it can only go two ways AP keeps stumping up or they go out of business nothing in between.
You could be right lad, I’d have liked them both here if I’m honestI know you have the odd corporate day at the cods but I think we are better off with SS pal.
Money laundering is serious stuff, if he’s convicted he will face a custodial sentence. Curtains for his ownership of fleetw I would suggest.How does this affect his ownership if found guilty? Probably no impact, knowing the Football League
It’s all over... things always catch up with people in the end.
Thank God Sadler has some standards then.You could be right lad, I’d have liked them both here if I’m honest
I think you have a good point here TS. If the court case rules against him and/or his company gets into difficulty because of the energy crisis then it may be a realistic proposition to buy Pool fort. And we don't even have to change the name , we would just need a job lot of tangerine paint to transform itSerious quesrion
He owns Pool foot not Fleetwood town, is it worth speaking to his creditors if he loses the case and putting in a cheeky offer.
No real interest for anyone else to have that land as presume it is green belt
No.Serious quesrion

Hold up, a local 'rival' club's owner is in a bit of bother and we can't take the piss? Why do Fleetwood get a pass from some on here? It's a little bit cringeworthy.A lot of posters going to be embarrassed when they read this thread back in the near future. Andy will be ok and so will Fleetwood and his training ground
I admire the job Simon Sadler and Brett are going but I’d have loved pilley to have taken over
I hope you go under
Taking the piss isn’t something I have a problem with at all mate. It’s the nasty comments that aren’t really needed don’t you agree?Hold up, a local 'rival' club's owner is in a bit of bother and we can't take the piss? Why do Fleetwood get a pass from some on here? It's a little bit cringeworthy.
Fuck 'em.
Same thing though isn't it? Imagine if Hemmings was up on fraud charges?Taking the piss isn’t something I have a problem with at all mate. It’s the nasty comments that aren’t really needed don’t you agree?
Don’t know Trevor Hemmings so not really interested mate. Andy has been a good friend to quite a few on here who have known him for years as a Blackpool fan and as a very generous person as wellSame thing though isn't it? Imagine if Hemmings was up on fraud charges?
So why doesn't he put his own money in then?Why is a loan from one company to another fiddling tax revenues? The recipient company pays no tax on the loan received and the lending company gets no tax relief on the amount loaned.
That's irrelevant though, I know you want to defend your mate but others don't know him from Adam so taking the piss is fair game.Don’t know Trevor Hemmings so not really interested mate.

I problem with anyone taking the piss mateThat's irrelevant though, I know you want to defend your mate but others don't know him from Adam so taking the piss is fair game.
I'm sure Pilley can defend himself mind, usually through the courts these days.
Yeah I know, it's just the Fleetwood love in annoys me sometimesI problem with anyone taking the piss mate
It hasn't football banter and he own's a rival their fans hate us with a passion so why can't the roles be reversed?I wish Pilley all the best. Why has this town got such a small Minded approach to anybody successful?
You were saying the same things about Owen until Raging had a word with you.A lot of posters going to be embarrassed when they read this thread back in the near future. Andy will be ok and so will Fleetwood and his training ground
Mine too, better get the genny outMine just gone bust - AVRO
As a coward who daren’t say anything to anyone’s face your opinion is irrelevant you prickYou were saying the same things about Owen until Raging had a word with you.
I will refrain from antagonising you from now on, it seems to get you rather irritated.As a coward who daren’t say anything to anyone’s face your opinion is irrelevant you prick
Loans between connected companies happen all the time in the business world and HMRC don’t have a problem with it. If such a loan can’t be repaid it will be written off and the net effect is tax neutral.So why doesn't he put his own money in then?
He lends money from his company to a company who hasn't a cat in hells chance of ever paying the money back if I tried that stunt HMRC would have me over the coals.
£21 million in debt come on that's a ridiculous amount for a club the size of them
Correct - should be nationalised and we should never get any where near this shamblesSorry I've no sympathy for energy providers at all . . . screw us for every last penny and pay share holders a fortune.
Now things are hard for them they come cap in hand . . . why can't their share holders bail them out?
He was below the belt when he ‘worked’ for the Post OfficeI think Mosser and Mac are spot on here.
Pilley has done a lot for Fleetwood and hasnt done much wrong where BFC is concerned as far as im aware.
Show some class. If you dont want to support him fair enough but at least respect what he's done and show some decorum.
Some of the comments on here are below the belt.
It will be and think carefully how you want to vote at the next electionYep, just had the email. Hopefully it's not a huge price hike as there are no options for switching at the moment.
Restricted our following to 750 last time we played them. Petty action.I think Mosser and Mac are spot on here.

No.
I think the club wants to work with Blackpool Council on a facility, or that's the feeling, Poolfoot is a pain in the arse to get to, not in Blackpool obviously and we could do without hand me downs from failed clubs as a training ground, we're not Preston.
I reckon the beginning of the end for Fleetwood was the day that Simon Sadler bought Blackpool.
Their success and rise through the leagues coincided with our slump and boycott years and I think the two were very much related.
Now with SS in charge the only attractive show in town (on the Fylde coast) is us.
Fleetwood may well survive, but I think they are past their peak league standing and I can also see their support base slowly 'coming home' to Blackpool
Depends where on Garstang Road West, top half is Blackpool, VIDA definitely is.Went through it in a thread a while back and not many if any suitable sites in the councils area.
Rumoured to be Garstang Road West technically in Poulton.
Yeah, there's a big sign that says 'Wyre'The boundary is just after that, so for the space they will need, it can only be past the boundary.

It may not be there but thats not the central location they wanted, barring some lawsons area...Yeah, there's a big sign that says 'Wyre'
It's a ballache to get to if you're not in town as well, either piss about through Layton, past the Vic or take your chances with Garstang Rd.It may not be there but thats not the central location they wanted, barring some lawsons area...
It'd still be good where rumored above, but not within Blackpool council area which they wanted it to be.
Hopefully find out soonish.
If they put a few pitches somewhere else maybe they won't need something as big as people think. They wanted it to be for locals too so if they are maybe placed somewhere near Stanley Park but the training ground itself another place, could work.It's a ballache to get to if you're not in town as well, either piss about through Layton, past the Vic or take your chances with Garstang Rd.
You seem to be conveniently forgetting the 9 promotions prior to this when Fleetwood climbed the leagues...what he has done there is unbelievable really and he couldnt have done it without a real passion for football. I think they have reached as high as they are going to go and tbh I have little interest in them as I am a Blackpool fan and we already have a brilliant owner at the helm.Andy Pilley self loaned Fleetwood 20+ million and they're near bottom of League One.
That's some achievement!

Maybe we are going to do what Chester have done and have the entrance in Blackpool and the rest in Wyre just like Chester city has the main entrance in England and the rest of the whole ground is in Wales but they kid on their fans that they are actually an ‘English club in England’The boundary is just after that, so for the space they will need, it can only be past the boundary.

Think you need to check where they came from and the faciliities they had when he arrived .Andy Pilley self loaned Fleetwood 20+ million and they're near bottom of League One.

I take it you’ve not been past Fylde ground lately?Correct. Them and especially AFC Fylde.
