Wrong. If you've overpaid PAYE / NI as an employer you are actively encouraged to deal with it in this manner. Even goes for SMP funding, online filing incentives etc.Agreed. I'm afraid this is another ruse to disguise the club's appalling cash-flow situation. If you or I think we've overpayed tax, we apply for a rebate - we don't withhold it from our PAYE! His behaviour is thoroughly reckless.

Can you be locked up for tax evasion, I know it worked for that gangster Al Capone.
Southend United face yet ANOTHER winding up petition after reportedly withholding £200,000 from their November and December PAYE submissions to the taxman.
If you believe everything you have read in the Echo in recent weeks this cannot be true...as PAYE is only due once you have paid your empolyees - so nothing to worry about chaps

For once, I'll side with the club on this until further evidence shows it to be wrong - seems to be just simple mis-allocation by the pillocks at HMRC as I've seen it many times over.
As an employee, you are correct, it is your job to apply for a refund.

Hurrah! A rare informed voice among the din of judgmental speculation...
I stand corrected - thanks for the clarification.

He doesn't have a legal to stand on.
If there was an overpayment in the £2.1m, and frankly, this should have been identified before it was paid and sorted out then, then it should be claimed back.
However, the "overpayment" is simply SUFC claiming there is on, it has not been agreed with HMRC and as such the withholding of PAYE is reckless in the extreme as it opens another case of non-payment of tax, which will have interested added to it and probably an additional penalty.
I am quite astounded that RM can be so stupid.
