100% thats how I see it, there seems to be this view that we were trying to throw out the whole principle of APT rules, I don't believe that to be the case at all. There needs to be regulation and rules in place however they need to be fair to all parties concerned and most importantly legal.If I can paraphrase (and shoot me down here if anyone is better informed), it seems to me that the PL 'win' is that the concept of there being rules is lawful. City's win is, however, relates to what those rules actually are.
I know which seems to be the more effective win to me.
We felt the amendments pushed through after the Newcastle take over were not fair and legal and as such challenged them. We won, they are having to amend the rules.
The PL are claiming a victory in that the panel agreed there needed to be rules and regulations, I dont believe we ever challenged that.
