       The taxman is coming

       Today's Times reports that the Inland Revenue are investigating
       Research and Development tax credit claims made by football
       clubs. Chelsea, for example, claimed £3M. The article mentions
       in passing that Harlequins and Northampton have also made
       claims.

       I can only find the aerticle from back in February about this
       (archive link HERE
  HTML https://archive.ph/knH4B).
       A lot of companies in all sorts of
       businesses claim R&D tax credits and it's usually easy to make a
       case that is accepted by HMRC.

       Perhaps this is linked to our innovated mouthguard that measure
       collisions.

       That was my first thought as well - though it could equally be
       related to our marketing approaches. The R&D regime is, as fred
       says. pretty generous and you can claim tax credits on any
       project work that is customised to your business.

       Someone needs to pay for Sammy's flights and Rayner's 42 million
       new houses.

       My experience is that HMRC have severely clamped down on R and D
       claims and have ramped up their team reviewing them as they
       believe that the scheme has been rather abused over the years.

       They're probably not wrong, though.
