Tolmie said they didn't know when they turned up to work.
I'm saying there is a lot of time between them turning up to work and publishing a statement at 9.29.

I know two brothers with the surname Kuntz. I'm sure I can persuade them to set up a media company. The Kuntz League has a certain ring to it.
In the Orkneys Twatt is a common surname. Maybe you could rope in a couple of those as well.

So that dipper staff knew about it .As I say, we can point fingers in loads of directions but clubs such as United and Liverpool have former employees right across Uefa.
At the very top.

In any event, they probably had two statements prepared, one for a positive outcome and one for a negative result.Tolmie said they didn't know when they turned up to work.

also even though it was time stamped 9:29 it was not available or didn’t show up till about 9:32

Whilst I agree the outcome is all that matters, my original post was more out of shock/respect that City and Pep were inwardly nervous at the outcome right until the announcement.
Its a possibility that City are briefing they had no idea of the result as a courtesy to CAS.
Not having it that a result of this nature and the subsequent media attention it would receive worldwide wasn't given to both parties in advance so that lawyers could brief on media releases.
That opinion ties in with those on here who have experience of arbitration and the law.

CAS processes R58. A list of applicable law/regulations is provided to the parties he week before the award that can be validated by both parties. Any lawyer worth his salt can identify what the result will be from this.Im not privy to what may have transpired beforehand, only the assertion that the senior personnel did not know the verdict and the nerves were very much real.
I would not know as to your knowledge on actual legal process beforehand.
If you read up about previous CAS appeals, it becomes clear from this as to what the final judgement will probably be.

I don't buy into the theory the top brass didn't know, before arriving at work.
Just my opinion based on CAS rules and regs and things PR has said.
Think they mean publish as in terms of handing over the emails to Uefa.
I had heard a while back that all Uefa possibly had were the stolen emails and spoke with Prestwich Blue about it at the time.
It always felt like this was the case; and that in forcing this through they believed more would be disclosed that nailed city - unfortunately I think it was a gamble that backfired. This was evident from the change from the clubs usually mild mannered approach to a bullish approach.
Our owners are not gamblers at heart, if we had been guilty we would have seen a deal done so I was always more towards the confident side on this entire case.
