Well I can well imagine that it started as a fishing expedition to see what they could add to the hack information but what I can't imagine is that they were advised by a top legal team that they had nothing but still went ahead.It still makes no sense that they got the charges wrong. You’d think when they are advising they are looking at the year book & the allegation.
You’d also think they’d say CAS over ruled because of this, so it’s unlikely & a reason they didn’t move forward for 4 years.
Also the sheer volume of charges is vindictive & inconsistent. If you want someone nailed & quickly you wouldn’t create head aches for yourself. It would be like throwing charges of “fly tipping” at Peter Sutcliffe.
Obviously neither Pannick or their KC will be doing it on a no win-no fee basis but again surely neither are that desperate that they need to take on a hopeless case. Both sides think they can win in my view so a guaranteed slam dunk for us is wishful thinking. All a matter of opinion of course and many others will have an entirely different take on it. I just wish it would reach a conclusion in months rather than years but I highly doubt it.
