This seems quite likely. Leaks say we wont get a ban, Ceferin offers a deal, then we get hit. What changed?

I think you missed the step out that actually changed everything.

Ceferin offers a deal - We tell him to get fucked and we would rather see him in court.
 
Well this thread has outed a few sleepers; as for the matter at hand it just adds to the rollercoaster.
Oh and UEFA is the definition of a venal organisation.
 
Your wrong

Cheers..

As a Swiss arbitration organization, decisions of the CAS can be appealed to the Federal Supreme Court of Switzerland.[9] Appeals of arbitration decisions are generally not successful,[10] and no evaluation of the merits is taking place and the evaluation is mainly based on whether procedural requirements have been met, and whether the award is incompatible with public policy. As of March 2012 there have been seven successful appeals. Six of the upheld appeals were procedural in nature, and only once has the Federal Supreme Court overruled a CAS decision on the merits of the case. This was in the case of Matuzalém, a Brazilian football player.[11]

The Federal Court of Justice of Germany ruled against the German speed-skater Claudia Pechstein, recognising a lack of jurisdiction to revisit her case. The Federal Court ruled that CAS met the requirements of a court of arbitration according to German law and that CAS's independence from the parties was secured by the method of selecting arbitrators and the possibility to appeal to the Swiss Federal Tribunal.[12][13]

Seems there is a battle going on in UEFA with different fractions fighting for supremacy we are being used by one side, the established clubs and maybe PSG Seems there has been pressure applied on the CFCB to ban us
 
One can only assume David Conn will also be tweeting with criticism about his fellow reporters in the media who showed Caroline Flack excessive disrespect?

yeah right, these guardian writers seem to very Gung ho with their fight against establishment.

Always there to defend the under dogs like tabloid press against vulnerable young ladies & under dog American owned football clubs & their cartels v dirty Muslims & their oil.

Two months ago Sam Lee put an extremely confident piece on UEFA having decided not to ban us. That despicable Tariq Panja went absolute silent ever since he got leaked info around May. All this pointed towards UEFA dropping their charges. Suddenly they have done a 180.

My speculation is that they knew their decision wouldn’t stand in a court or even at CAS but at the last second decided that they would get too much outrage if they were to drop the charges. Hence they can still say they decided to ban us after CAS overturns their verdict.

With respect to the above, does anyone think it is a coincidence that CAS stated that the issues we raised regarding leaks from Uefa were worrysome and within 48 hours the decision is announced. As others have stated I think this is UEFA's final throw of the dice, ban and fine us to maximise this bad publicity for us safe in the knowledge that it will get overturned due to due process and they will claim they only lost out on a technicality. In everyones eyes we are still guilty and they have limited egg on their faces, we carry the stigma for years to come.

The question is would we be happy with this outcome, I very much doubt it.
