CAS judgement: UEFA ban overturned, City exonerated (report out p603)

[M12Blue]

UEFA had no legitimacy to investigate this matter.

So illegitimate bastards, think we knew that ;)

look at the fucking state of this

Any journalist that is able to turn around this amount of copy only minutes after the report was released must have been given it in advance. That includes Tariq Panja.

So what we’re actually seeing here in all its glory is which journalists are in whose pocket.

Email even before FFP was a thing. That paper made out as if it were after.

I'm voluntarily off Twitter in protest against their failure to deal with antisemitism but there's going to be some fucking bloodletting at 9:01am tomorrow.

Checked out a lot of the football sites. Nothing at all about this.

You’re my new hero PB! Seriously, a whole series of balls on accurate calls. Great stuff!

PB for City and Swiss Ramble for European football are tops when it comes to understanding how football finances work. No one is close to them. I deal with financial statements, accounting pronouncements and public disclosures in filings daily and write equity research for a living (I cover an industry unrelated to sport in the States). Their analysis is top notch, thorough, detailed, as unbiased as can be expected. Journos who know shit about how financials even work can't hold a candle to either of them, which is why they've fucked this whole thing up while City and PB have been vindicated. Lazy fucks who don't understand the details and don't do their homework anyhow.

Colin's held our hands collectively through this whole thing in a way both me as a fan and me as a finance guy can doubly appreciate.

Delaney#s tweet about it.

I just hope someone can rewrite this CAS-conclusion in layman’s terms so that even the least talented opposing fan understands that we did nothing wrong.

So we might be done with UEFA now, but what about the FA? The investigation from Premier League is still ongoing? This should help them close their case surely? On the other hand they have no five year timeframe to take into consideration, if something shady happened prior to 2014, which they could dig up. Not that I believe we did anything wrong from day 1.

@Prestwich_Blue ,when you've had chance to read it, is there any chance you could start a new thread with bullet points and laymen's term, so the hard of learning(me) can take them in and give it back to the gobby fuckers at work

ta

Heres a bullet point for you

3-0 is a majority is how I see it

Mabe the president decided not to vote having received the opinions of the other 2. So it could be 2-0.
