3 clubs within the stadium could give Assem Allam a reasonable bargaining chip I suppose.

Or FC move to NCP so AA can have the KC all to city's self.

Pearson also slipped in blindside that there would have to be "negotiations with HMRC in the future"
Why?

something to do with EBT's, it's a tax fiddle to pay high saleries, loop hole was closed not so long back, they may have a little bit of tax to pay. good news is there maybe another loop hole opening

Now then Vince, long time no see. Hope you are well.

Its the off shore tax accounts that the Anzac players would be a bundle dropped into when they left the country. HMRC have been investigating the practice for literally years across many sports not just RL.

Would be a bit harsh if they retrospectively charged companies. But then again, these are politician

Now you're being silly again.

Not really.
NCP will hold about 13ish when the north and east are done (funding in place so for free for AA), All he needs to worry about is funding a new south stand and he gets his little RL ground for both FC and KR.

He can then get on with making his football club a premiership club with a football only stadium (The prem DO want this) and he can do with it what ever he wants.
There is little need for him to touch us if NCP isn't in his plans

How?

So, by "slipped in on the blindside" did you really mean "he clearly stated in his press release" "Hull FC has one major financial challenge to overcome from what has been a very well run era over the last 10 years. That challenge is the legacy of EBT payments to players which was prohibited by changes in government legislation in late 2010.This has left the club with a very significant potential tax liability which I will have to examine in detail over the coming months and find a solution for."[/i

We apparently, unlike other SL clubs have no issues over image rights. We have also, during most of that 10 year period managed to show a net profit (and before you start, that has absolutely nothing to do with capitalising players). The rules governing EBT have changed over the years and unless Hull FC have been found to evade taxation under prevailing rules, it's highly unlikely that HMRC would make a credible case for retrospective action.

I'm quite comfortable with knowing that Adam Pearson is first & foremost a businessman and would not have even considered entering into a takeover without an appreciation of worse-case scenario regarding potential HMRC liabilities.

How are you club's debts racking up at the moment?

Ok then, ahemm "Darth". {S}
