Yes, very reassuring. Mansoor is going nowhere.“The allegations made against us and the subsequent hysterical reaction they have caused has made the club's owners and executives even more determined to turn City into the club that the Abu Dhabi United Group envisaged when they took over 10 years ago."
EPIC
A summary - Pretty Defiant :)
This is why to cover their ass, they ask clubs to go to task for their appeal.When judgement was given in the Bosman case UEFA, who claimed that European law was irrelevant as it was a football matter, was warned very bluntly that in cases of dispute the matter would be decided according to what the law was, not according to what UEFA saw as its own or football's best interests.
Theoretically PSG could get an injunction from the French courts and CAS preventing UEFA from applying sanctions while the case went through the ECJ. Would need a bit of political capital but Qatar seem to have it in France.This is why to cover their ass, they ask clubs to go to task for their appeal.
A club could go to European Court but, during the trial, UEFA threatens to expel you from the competition. Since it will take years, it is a good enough deterrent for them. No club want to miss european competitions for years.
The only way it could happen is if they sanction PSG or City too much so that they feel they don't have much to lose anymore.
At the time OM cheated and got punished, they wanted to bring their case to court.Theoretically PSG could get an injunction from the French courts and CAS preventing UEFA from applying sanctions while the case went through the ECJ.

FFF can be threatened, but get a national court to back you and UEFA will find their manners.At the time OM cheated and got punished, they wanted to bring their case to court.
There is rumours that UEFA and then FIFA threaten French Federation of Football if they didn't make OM comply.
Also, remember the Fc Sion case versus UEFA. UEFA made them their bitch.

They didn't actually have the backing of a Swiss national court mate.Did you read the link with FC Sion case ? They got raped left and right despite swiss court.

Yeah, they had swiss regional court backing only and when it went further, the court decided to side with CAS.They didn't actually have the backing of a Swiss national court mate.
Allow me to introduce you to irony.Won't happen. There is a project they started and they have just begun it.
Political capital and the fact that an EU court has stricter antitrust/competition/investment laws than a Swiss one.Yeah, they had swiss regional court backing only and when it went further, the court decided to side with CAS.
So, why is it sure that French court wouldn't do the same ?
But, in the meantime, they can still put you out of the competition.Political capital and the fact that an EU court has stricter antitrust/competition/investment laws than a Swiss one.
