    OK it may be a first, but...

    Does anybody know if Stoke City is a legal/business entity in it's own right or in anyway shape of form involved with Coate's Bet365.
    I know there is shirt sponsorship, but I wonder if the club is 'owned' by Bet365, with the Bookies acting as a holding company, perhaps registered in The Cayman Islands or some other 'legal' Tax Haven.

    I read somewhere , can't remember where , possibly Sentinel , that 365 is one of a very few , or the only , betting company based in this country that pays it's fair share of tax to the UK treasury.

    Ironically I read recently that he is moving the business abroad for tax reasons (atleast he is honest I suppose)
