Totally agree. By saving on tax, he can afford to put more into the charity pot.
He could have put £5 million into the pot and gave the taxman more, but he didn't. 

Any guy who is confident enough to wear a hair band is confident enough to have the piss taken out of him for it. The guy is an alpha male captain of the football team, I don’t think anyone is questioning his masculinity. I’m as SJW as the next guy, really, but there’s got to be some wiggle room for a bit of bants left in this world.
Probably should be careful calling him a Jessie though, Lingard might get offended.  

Exactly. Have worked with many high net worth individuals. Those just wanting to reduce tax bill choose to do so by many means other than donating to charity, especially such large sums.  Only those that actually want to donate do so. Having seen/prepared the tax returns of many HNWIs you would (or perhaps wouldnt!) be surprised at how few do give significant amounts to charity. For many its the sort of amounts we may give. So Mel's charitable giving is just that and he should be applauded for it

I repeat, he hasn't saved anything, he may have reduced his tax burden by donating to charity but the net position is that he's given money away, not received money.
Unless you think the charity then distributes money back into Mel's pocket of course?
You're point is either disingenuous or completely lacking in understanding.
End of conversation.

Stopped reading at should have appointed Warnock

Hindsight is a wonderful thing.
On the whole there isn't much to disagree with but there are a few things that I'd like to pick up on.
The alarm bells started ringing for you when you saw players arriving in huge salaries...where did you find out the salaries they were on? 
The drones spying on Pearson story was laughable, and if you honestly believe that, I feel for you.
My favourite in all of this though is that you think the football played under Clememt and Rowett was dire, only to go on and say we should have appointed Warnock ???

Try telling that to the treetard Forsyth trod on.

This thread...

But then you go on to say you do know and it’s all MM’s fault. It will be easier  to apportion blame, once we have all the facts, if that ever happens, due to the number of NDA’s floating around.

Yes. 
I actually said " how the #### do you know" but he just said something something nda!
He wouldn't tell me who told him.

I think Robbie Keane was a natural though.
