Fair one, I'm a bit of an asshole for even bringing it up.

Don't be so hard on yourself.....................a bit of .....?? :)

Private schools proceed with legal action over VAT plans

The Independent Schools Council, which represents 1,400 schools, votes to proceed with legal action.

Panick has his next job lined up in Jan so can’t be too much longer now.

No. 6 is the key finding. If PSRs were replaced by a spending cap that would be a huge improvement, provided that the cap made sense. The PL, however, are quite capable of messing even that up.

A cap as a % of revenues, or an anchor?

I don't see how either of those do anything to improve competition, honestly.

I wish these lawyers would stop using football metaphors to describe what is going on. It doesn't make them look edgy and it's condescending, quite honestly. We can understand what is going on even if they use big words. Usually ....

Removing all financial rules and introducing a flat £500m net transfer cap assessed over a 3 year rolling period would solve a lot of problems.

Apologies if posted - It looks like Lord Pannick is lining up new work. This extract from an article on the BBC website in relation to VAT being applied to private school fees from January:

In a board meeting on Thursday, the Independent Schools Council (ISC), the body which includes most independent schools in the UK, voted to pave the way for legal action.

Lord David Pannick KC, one of the country’s leading barristers in cases relating to government decisions, is to lead the challenge which will be brought on behalf of parents, including those with children with special educational needs and disabilities

Anchor is nonsense. Straight cap, it depends on the level. If if reins in the big boys reasonably, but does not inhibit the next tranche, it gives the next tranche a chance to catch up.

No chance of that being implemented then. Cartel don't want teams 'catching up'

This is what I've been stating since I took a step back, & adopted a global overview stance...

"In short, the old days of deference to the 'specificity of sport' appear to be numbered. As a result, fans are likely to continue to see their favourite clubs fighting their battles in the courts, as well as on the football pitch."

Game, set & fuckin match! Sport is a business & should be treated in law, the same as any other industry...

FFP, PSR & APT are as ridiculous as the Australian PMC rules!
