The Author is putting his own slant on a case,that in reality he knows fuck all about.
He likely knows as much,if not less than our resident experts.
How does he know what parts of the UEFA Case City Barristers were challenging anyway ?.
If our Case had been open to interpretation in the way he suggests.Then in my opinion we would not have even taken the risk in going to CAS and would have cut a deal with UEFA when we had the chance.No matter how unpalatable the deal was.
I don't think he/she is taking a slant. perhaps being selective, maybe, whether intentionally or through lack of available alternative information.
It doesn't make good reading, and in some ways is consistent with what a few of the media outlets have been rushing to conclude.
Which is, we are not accused of just breaching FFP but deliberately cheating it, UEFA, and by extension, football. And that is a bloody serious accusation. Bloody hope our documents are in order and no link between the emails and the actual submitted accounts can possibly exist. That will be the only thing that can clear us, all technicalities and bluster plays aside.
Again, discussing only the above and what is available in that btw.
