  1. There is only one great Unai. Turns a sheepshagging team into champions of England - next year wins the champions league.
  2. The nasties multiply like rabbits. Trumpism-Brexitism-Putinism and now tax dictatorships too. I 've heard of people getting bashed for being on the dole lots and lots of times. Now it becomes compulsory to be on the dole !
  3. The Postecoglou star is sinking. So does Pep I believe. Hurra for the toffies.
  4. I made 25000 posts last summer and explained why Unai is THE manager.
  5. It's not EU directive a far as I know. t's a GR thing. First who tried it were the socialists in 1994, now the conservatives ! Now when you say "provide evidence" that the presumptive tax requisition is unfair, how to do that ? Effectively you "accuse" me of under-reporting and me from existing-recorded data prove you wrong. But what about pirate caves, secret crypts and the like ? I can't disprove so I 'm guilty. In 1994 this happened. Me and two friends were publishing sports books. I was responsible for the accompanying cds, they were doing the writing. In 1991-92 some good sales but towards the end of 1993 the "boss" tells me "it does n't look good anymore and the taxman looms - go end declare the company absolved". I says "no - I 'm not doing it - leave it - things will improve". Then in comes the socialist government with the "objective criteria". I did n't know but my personal profit for the year 1994 was now supposed to be 2,500,000 drachmas (~ 7500 euros) whether I liked it or not. Therefore tax 500,000 drachmas (1500 euros). Where to find them ? Only way out was if I had declared exactly zero for 1994. But somebody I did n't know bought something for 15,000 drachmas (40 euros) and that amount was declared by me. So I paid in the end, hawked the family jewels. The funny thing is that "somebody" was in fact the owner of a big restaurant by the seaside. To this day he phones me from time to time and he has also made me many gifts ! So for not knowing him at the time he bought those books, I paid the price ! The fanciers of presumptive or objective taxation are basically the left. Marx says there must n't be any private businesses. But also the rich cats. There are two big carpet galleries in Athens. One is owned by the family of one of my old schoolmates. I can imagine him fuming at the gypsies who sell rugs in the flea markets. Poor quality the gypsy rugs are, but fit for certain purposes. Obviously he wants all of them to go to jail.
  6. The Tories are into their mischief making again but in Greece we have -officially now- the law of "presumptive taxation". That means if you own a business and you earn zero maybe in one year, you have to pay a minimum of some 5000 euros. The excuse ? The excuse is that some people may be hiding treasures, in the mountains - in pirate caves - socks, who knows ! I 've been searching for the word describing this practice, its "presumptive taxation" - found it in Greek govt pdfs translated in English. We did n't expect it of course. Before the election -June 2023- they promised "no new taxes - only reductions wherever it becomes possible". I believe this practice against poor people is to be found nowhere in the EU or UK, but maybe something like it was Margaret Thatcher's poll tax. My information is that it is not being done in the other EU countries. But do some of you know anything more ?
  7. Ha'. In so much as I am in favour of positive vetting, I just don't like anyone to count my money.
  8. Saw a little now. Gallagher's card was unfair.
  9. So, by exactly the same token, when the allies passed beyond the Zigfried line and the Geries were now on the receiving end, Eisenhower ought to have halted operations. Message to Adolph "ok herr Hitler, no more war - just prepare your new weapons and we wait".
  10. Lucky Brighton. Won penalty in counterattack then AEK left with 10. But even after that they were poor - just managed to survive.
  11. Brtn ginded to a pulp by AEK Athens but 0-0 at half time. Not anywhere near Marseille who were lucky to beat us the first time but also beat us the second time playing better football.
  12. It is, after Bosman. Thre-four good teams only. PL is certainly more difficult, only UCL is knockout and some strange happening may see you out - like Mou's team with Brentwood.
  13. I told you, those are sh*t teams. Same was Real Sociedad I was watching. Two wins for Chelsea if we were playing against them.
  14. Inter is indifferent. Same for Bayern - Real.
  15. Allah bir Allah. Vai vai. Karabak karabuk.
  16. The Turks are panic men - they will lose to the clowns.
  17. They were. But my handicap -1 lost because of Pep.
  18. Citeh taken apart by a bunch of German clowns.
  19. I wonder how the king of Morocco would react if someone did an 10/7 against Morocco.
