Who is Carl Moore?

[O.T.B.C 0]

I have tried to Google him, but it does not list anything of note. It does mention, that he helped Thaxton too. Does anyone know, what sort of business does he run and if he has ever wanted to get on the board?

[Barbie 10,000]

I think this is he, or at least part of his business:  http://www.moco-travel.co.uk Sponsor of Diss Town.

Is that ''underground'' as in a shady surveying organaisation operating outside of the law? Or just somebody who does surveys underground?

[Camuldonum 0]

I believe Moco Travel is his main business.

[Lenny-boy 0]

He doesnt exist at all. just creative accounting again.

Correct. This is his main operation, but he also has Moco Travel (which Mike Milligan runs). He''s been in prison before too, which had something to do with money. Fact. So for everyone getting excited by him - don''t be.

I am grateful, but I also know the man so am just posting facts. If he makes a sporting donation (i.e these loans) he avoids paying tax. Also true.

[O.T.B.C 0]

Cheers for that. He seems a person who wants to stay out of the headlines to me and is quite happy to put money in for purchases and investment on an ad-hoc basis, probably wiser for him and the club, that instead of putting regular cash in or a large one off payment, he can put money in for the likes of Lita and Hucks.

So, it should be relatively easy to find other Carl Moores'' looking for a tax break then.  I can''t see a down side there.  Would you rather he gave the money to the treasury ?

If it''s that easy they can have my tax, I''d rather Roeder wated it than Brown. [:O]

Ive only met Mike Milligan once, but this impression couldnt be more accurate of the experience. Except after slurring his words he slumped in his chair and closed his eyes for thirty seconds, then opened them, burped and said "I gotta go".

He told me at the time, a few years ago, that he was started an autograph business and said "If you need anything just give me a call"...... which was odd, since I obviously didnt have his phone number.

Have met up with Mike Milligan before but he wouldn''t remember as he could hardly stand let alone speak.  He and Carl  where in Malaysia when City went there as guests of Proton a few years back.  Remember Carl walking into the bar (ouch) and buying all us City fans a drink which for me makes him a top bloke!  Other things stay on tour.

[Syteanric 1]

a mate of mine met Milly at a fucntion at Carrow road for one of the directors birthdays.. he was hammered then!

I saw him in squares a few years back before a game.. it was just after lunch and i think Milly had already been in there a while!?

Seem to fit in well with the scene.  

As a general point payments incurred not wholly and necessarily in the normal course of business are not  tax deductible  . The paticular circumstances of any payment would drive the tax treatment . From the nature of these payments it''s impossible to conclude without more information.

Such payments should not be confused with gift aid payments to registered charities where the donor can attract tax benefits in some situations.

I once saw Mike swigging gin outside of the forum. Once he finished, he went on to smash the bottle very near the walking public. Security guards came storming out of the forum, leading Mike to run... straight in front of a speeding taxi. Luckily nobody was hurt but it could of been a lot worse.

Assuming he is making the "donation" as an indivdual (not via a company) and he can get a tax deduction for that (not sure how he could to be honest) then the net cost of his "donation" would be 59% of the amount donated.

E.g. If he donated £100k, then he''d pay £41k less tax as a result, so the net cost is £59k.

I would imagine he probably makes the "donation" via his company, and gets a corporation tax deduction at 28%.

Who is Carl Moore?

Someone who operates on the very edge of the law ...but has only been caught once.

Was a nasty piece of work in his youth and has spent time at her majesty`s pleasure.

Leopards dont change their spots and any money he puts in to the club is for his personal benefit and nothing else.

Still is IMO, have had many run ins with him!

He is not somebody i would want to business with & the money he has out into NCFC has been for his own benefit.

When he was paying for Lita, he ripped the poor guy to shreds one day for missing from close range!( and yes i know he was paying his wages etc)

Why are we suddenly taking about him again anyway?

[/quote]Apparently because Pompey Yellow has a reaction time of over 12 months to a post. And if he''s such a nasty piece of work,why are people slagging him off on a public forum? Seems a little unwise to me.
