What could we sue Der Spiegel for? All they have done is publish some leaked information. But the information was correct. It's other that have put a spin on the information and not looked at them in context.

Agreed. The only cause of action against Spiegel would be if they tampered with the email to give a false impression. We have never accused them of that.

Grassland Blue that is what I have been saying all along. The problem about going for Der Speigel is I do not know if they have in Germany a law similar to our libel law. If they do then let's start the ball rolling. We can still do Der Speigel for theft, even though they printed the story in Germany the theft was on our data base and therefore happend in this country. We want substantial damages if this bankrupts them then so be it.

DS didn't steal anything.
 
Can anyone answer the following for me:

Will we be entered into next years champs league (Covid pending) if we haven’t yet got answers to our Appeal?

That’s the 10 million dollar question. As things stand No because we have been banned but have appealed to the CAS. However, it doesn’t look like we have formally asked for the punishment to be staid pending our appeal. I think there’s some brinkmanship going on - whereby we haven’t asked for the case to be staid because we know that creates a huge issue for UEFA - If we serve a ban and then get exonerated, it would result in a huge claim for damages that would bankrupt UEFA. Of course if UEFA are not sure of their ground and think a huge compensation claim might be heading their way they might blink first and show their weak hand. All good fun and I’m sure our lawyers are piling the pressure on UEFA right now. This pandemic will have tipped the financial scales even further in our favour - I would guess.
