Depends on what CAS say. There is a world of difference between: "On balance, Uefa evidence is more cogent than City's" and "City claim their accounts show that Etihad paid the sponsorship, but they had no audit trail or scrap of evidence to prove this".If we do lose, I hope everyone won't go crazy, claiming our owners have misled and betrayed us, etc.
Arbitration decisions are rarely black and white - if they were, they wouldn't need to go to arbitration ... so regardless of the "facts" it could go either way. Or be a fudged compromise.
If we lose, it doesn't make our owners or board "liars", "traitors" or "cheats", so some perspective will be required amongst us fans, regardless of how difficult it will be to stomach and stay calm ?
