I make that another win for Stefan!
Jordan had clearly done a bit more research this time to try and get involved. Stefan wiped the floor with him last time, so he'd tried to dig some dirt. But even then he gets his facts wrong.
What Jordan reverted to was "you were guilty at UEFA" even though we weren't, and then "City should be able to defend themselves but this should also be so much quicker". Good one Simon. How exactly will that work?!
It is similar to the Mike Lynch case. It's an accusation of fraud and we will have bombarded them with information showing we aren't guilty. If they do find any dirt then at a hearing we'd be able to clarify and disprove any theories they have, similar to CAS.
This will only end quickly if the PL get bored and drop it, or get bored and punish us. But they know the latter will result in an appeal where things will be dealt with more robustly. And what happens if the penalty we get leads to a points deduction that's later overruled? People are looking at how it might impact a relegation battle, well what about a title? What if someone wins the league, has a parade and is later stripped of it because we have our points added on?
The whole process is farcical.
