City can't speak out publically at the moment because it would undermine our legal position. I would hope we have spoken privately to Ceferin though. When this case is finally resolved hopefully the club will speak openly and in detail making our "irrefutable evidence" clear to the whole world. This is the least our fans deserve. We are the paying customers.
Our evidence is our audited accounts, possibly Wittness statements saying that is correct and we may provide a bit more context and documentation, but ultimately the irrefutable evidence is our accounts.
It is actually hard to have some proof to prove what you’re saying is correct, when the other party does not believe it. We cannot unveil some clear and concise bit of evidence to make it all go away and the PL say ok, this line run out by opposing fans is ridiculous. We have provided the information already.
However, CAS and the IC (hopefully) will have a different view to Simon Jordan and Big Paul the scouser down the pub as they are not interested in PL thinking there wrong, they will want evidence from them.
Remember the accounts have been verified and audited, why should we not believe they are correct (and let’s be real here, PL have not required anything further from 19 of the other 20 teams other then there accounts).
Here the PL need something, they have the emails which CAS had and the non cooperation but not deemed enough on a lower burden of proof. So PL need something and for me forget that something is the key.
If they have something that reaches the level of proof required, we’re in trouble.
If they have something different from UEFA and it falls below the level required, then we are ok.
If they have exactly the same as UEFA then not only are we ok, but entitled to be truly annoyed that we have had to answer the same questions again!!
I think it will be a mixture of the last 2, mainly UEFA case with a little bit more in there, but nothing ground breaking.
