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

Nope, they don't know. If UEFA knew then it would be in the media. They are not the best at keeping secrets as we know.

you're obviously far superior with your knowledge, lets wait and see.

I'd guess that the decision was already made & signed off by the CAS President when they confirmed the date they would be releasing it. That seems to suggest the decision would have been made the week before last, if not earlier. Therefore it's quite possible that the club could already know.

Also we have no idea what actually happened at CAS. It's possible UEFA (despite what some hacks were saying) only really presented the Der Spiegel stories as their main evidence. Maybe the CAS panel asked if that was it, and whether they had any direct evidence of these allegations, with UEFA saying they had nothing else. Or something else may have happened there that made UEFA look like complete dicks.

Yep agree. The club certainly have shown growing positivity since the hearing, with a noticeable new gust of it last few days.

Could be nothing to read in that, or could be plenty. Not sonething that dan be taken as a sure thing, nor dismissed, entirely down to the person to take from it what they want. And comment as such.

Personally, as pessimistic as i have been a out the whole thing, i can't help feeling an inkling if hopefulness because of it, abd that is without thinking the club know.

Didn't get all of it and don't know if posted
Some guy called hush puppy has been accused of hacking a prem clubs site ?

Sorry if this is vague

Seems he tried to scam 100 mill
Again sorry if this is old news

I so much want this to be us that were attacked.



And I want Hushpuppi to confess to being comissioned by Liverpool.

Im in the same thought as this,i think they 100 percent know,was just a case of validatin citys case that they were truthfull and correct which would take a bit of time ,

You're the second to make that leap. He said it went the opposite way to what he thought (it would), not the opposite way to what he wanted. His secret is safe.

If it went the opposite way to his vote, he must have voted to remain, surely.

I had this very thought We are talking about a multi billion pound business all partys know this has to be settled as quick as possible to plan for the next season i would very much doubt CAS would keep quite right up to the 13th.

The recent interview with Pep has to indicate we already know the result. He could quite easily have said we have to wait and see when the verdict is annouched , his statement that he is confident that ---- and he trust the club --- would be stupid and dangerous words as it would put the whole club in bad light if we lost, Pep is certainly not stupid !

IF (and still an IF at the minute) we are cleared, the club needs to make sure they tell the world it wasn’t a technicality that got us off? That it was FACTS and not UEFA not following procedures correctly.

 

[Fordyboy46]

I think we've known the outcome not long after the case imho, but no way could it come out in to the open public.

 

[SilverFox2]

I doubt there are enough jurors to give such a percentage, its isn't the trial of Socrates.

In the words of a certain Pool manager " its a lot more serious than that".

 

[lonestay]

may be just maybe, we did wheel in the nuclear device and then show eufa what life would be like if we detonated it.

Always wondered how he did all those discourses on the state, morals & ethics all day, every day without being drugged up to the eyeballs. Then turning out for Brazil.

If calsberg did...

You forgot Messi, Neymar, Mbappe.

 

[Pablo ZZZ Peroni]

The question starts at about 3.40 on the link below. It was from the post match presser after Liverpool and embargoed until last night.
Anyone know who the journalist asking the question was? I recognise a fair few but not this guy.

 

[Centurions]

You forgot Messi, Neymar, Mbappe.

They're happening regardless of result though.

 

[Shaelumstash]

Simon Mullock has written a couple of bullish pieces in the Mirror today.

He’s on Sunday Supplement this morning, but I missed the first half an hour.

Does anyone know if he mentioned the case?

 

[Cobwebcat]

They will know before the public - maybe on 9/10 July(?) but everything I have seen including Pep's answer to the CAS question in the most recent press conference suggests they don't know yet. He was folding his arms, covering his face etc. I don't think they know. They may have a gut feeling (and it may well be positive) but I don't think they know yet.

Yes that would be my understanding too. I remember you saying that even with the best will in the World you can never be more than 70% sure of a win. Does that percentage increase once the case is heard or is that as high as it goes even after the case is heard and before the parties are officially told? Could City be 99% sure because of something that was said at the hearing?

Agree mate. I don't think the club will want to dwell on this matter IF we are successful. However, some well worded statements that basically embarrass UEFA would be nice. I am optimistic based on the clubs conduct, but still prepared for the worst.

 

[skiddypants]

The result is done and in the bag.
Pep clearly shows signs knows.
When UEFA is mentioned he rolls his eyes picks his ear and I'm sure he passes wind!
