Not sure that’s necessarily true tbh.

Given the rabid nature of our immediate rivals, most notably Liverpool and the rags, I’m not sure I share your enthusiasm on that score. They both want and need us out of commission permanently. If the ban is upheld, they get to set up their Super League with us effectively excluded sine die, and if it is partially upheld (ie reduced to 1 year) - giving us a chance to hold onto our best players - you can bet the compo claims and calls for our relegation, etc, will start in earnest, with the media doing the cheerleading

Covered city briefly:

Before the Covid-19 crisis there was the case and sanction of Manchester City. Is Uefa still supporting the chamber’s findings? Are you still fully behind the guilty verdict and the two-year ban?
Look, the decision was made and now the case is at the court of arbitration for sport and Cas will decide. That’s absolutely all I can say, for two reasons. Firstly, the independent bodies made the decision, I didn’t, and secondly, I really don’t know the case [well enough] and I don’t like people who comment about matters that they don’t know well. There are too many people commenting on different topics that they do not have a clue about.

So the possibility of a deal or a settlement outside court is not an issue for you?
I don’t want to comment on this case any more.

He couldn't distance himself from this case any more. Also, by making an issue of the independence of the IC and AC from UEFA, he has little confidence of a positive outcome for UEFA and plans seem to be in place to hang Leterme and the IC/AC for the protection of UEFA. Clearly, if we win the case, it will require a much wider and deeper purge and reparation to assuage Sheikh Mansour.

Whatever happens, Leterme is a dead man walking. See CAS remarks about him on our appeal against procedure. In this appeal, he will get pelters fron CAS, even if we lose.

Does anyone know if the evidence submitted gets published along with the outcome? Could be a very good way to get some really compromising/confidential information into the public domain about certain individuals or activities?

Full details are only published if both sides agree. So, I'd guess 'no',

A few snippets will possibly be in the summary document of findings
