UEFA FFP investigation - CAS decision to be announced Monday, 13th July 9.30am BST

Well done

This whole affair stinks and if we do get a ban, I can't see CAS upholding the decision.

Well done

Where’s that titanic headline meme when you need it... ;-)

 

[Newman Noggs]

Can't see behind the paywall. When it talks about legal proceedings I assume this is separate to the CAS case which was refused. And when it reports "demanded damages" in the past tense, does it suggest that those proceedings have been decided against us ?

Ah, I see the full report above. At least it shows where we are going with this.

Very interesting development though. UEFA now have a problem if the report was accurate in that a one season ban was recommended because it suggests there was a leak. Otherwise they will be claiming that the report was a "lucky guess". Not very convincing.

I would do, but I subscribe to the Times and I would link to my account, hence why no direct link. ;-)

I know, mate — articles behind paywalls are especially annoying when we just want to read the full text, rather than the highlighted bits via filtered media outlets.

But full articles still cannot be posted, unfortunately.

@petrusha has pointed out that blues can register on The Times site for free and then access two articles for free each week, if they are comfortable with sharing the info required for registration.

Not that I would ever suggest someone do this, but I have heard of certain others creating a separate email address that is used only for temporary or “free” registration required to access certain content that would otherwise be behind a paywall.

Again, I would never suggest that as a strategy, of course.

A few days ago, @Prestwich_Blue alluded to further articles to be published and this looks like one of those.

The landscape at the moment seems totally stacked against us. The FA refuse to charge Liverpool over their illegal hacking, they appear to allow Liverpool and United access to appointment of FA executives, and they claim to be very happy that Liverpool are so far ahead in the league because it hasn't affected TV viewing figures.

At the same time, the UEFA investigations are flying ahead, seemingly because certain other clubs are putting pressure on them to punish us.

I really hope we have plenty of ammunition to hit back at these corrupt organisations.

Fair enough. :-)

BM members will either have to subscribe or just read what others post about the article.

EitHer way, it’s becoming clearer that UEFA and their Committee are stitching City up.

BTW. Don’t know what is going on at the Times, but it’s f***ing brilliant ATM.

First the Liverpool hacking, then United and Liverpool meeting the PL Chief Executive candidates in secret, and now this.

The damage has been done to the club’s reputation. The club should go for the leaker as well as the organisation.

Are screenshots ok?

Classic Leterme. Knows he can’t defend the indefensible and so refuses to engage any further.

Twitter quotations are fine, as responsibility is assumed by the account posting (and so the tweet will disappear on here if it is deleted due to copyright claim).

But only if they are also not posting screenshots of the entire article.

Any full posting of the article will get removed.

 

[Newman Noggs]

The documents referred to are on the CAS website for anyone interested. On a quick scan I can't see whether or not the judgment confirms the reports of the referral are correct as the quote appears to be redacted.

How about posting it a paragraph at a time with suitable narrative comment?

This is all starting to make Brexit look like a smooth operation and transition !

I would suggest everyone going to City_Rabin’s account on twitter to read.
