But one member of CAS agreed with them
Prof Haas an academic at Zurich University & the UEFA nominee did indeed vote against City, but I don’t think you can say he agreed with them !
Based on a write-up by his Research Assistant, he constructed an argument which ignored the substantive charges and the evidence (or lack of) presented. He based his entire position on a very personal (& somewhat bizarre) view about the significance of City’s “non-cooperation” even though CAS reduced the fine for this offence by 2/3. By hiding behind this tiniest of fig-leaves, his vote was an important face-saver for UEFA.
