My worry exactly. Everyone knows secretly that UEFA & FFP are both corrupt & are in place to stop our march to the top of Europe. However, it suits the rest of Europe to keep us out which is why the big 6 clubs have pushed UEFA into this action. Despite our protestations both on here & in public. Nobody believes or supports our claim

How can everyone know secretly?

If UEFA don't have the emails could the non cooperation be UEFA asking for them and us telling them to do one.

I'd say so. If I was being investigated by a "trade body" and same organisation had leaked info, briefed media and announced a decision against me, I would have no confidence with the second half of the process and sentencing. Why would I offer more info with the chance that an unfair process would continue and whatever I supplied would again be turned against me! I would want to be heard, hopefully, by a fair external arbiter! Equally I wouldn't be surprised if the same body became more pissed with me, cried fowl and upped the ante by hitting me with further charges of noncooperation.

Best tell the solicitors to give it a miss then because you 2 have already agreed its not getting overturned

UEFA will be laughed out of CAS, but the story will read as follows:

UEFA tried everything to bring to justice Manchester City F.C and their suspected non compliance with FFP. The ban and subsequent fine, we felt, was fair. We had and still believe we have concrete evidence

Public opinion will be: Bought their way out, again! Bent bastards. Corrupt. Even UEFA can’t stop them now!

You know that’s exactly how it will play. There will not be a headline that says Man City are innocent or an article that even considers entertaining the fact that we actually did fuck all wrong and that this was in fact a witch hunt.

Unless City take the gloves off, that's exactly how it will play out.
