UEFA FFP investigation - CAS decision to be announced Monday, 13th July 9.30am BST

That did occur to me too. If true, and they were confident in their case why would they want the decision delayed?

If they felt we were getting banned they’d enjoy the decision being delivered whilst they had our executives in the room with the draw being made.

Who leaked the story to the press I wonder... would UEFA leak the story that they have asked for a postponement or was it City?

Edit: Mike Keegan is the journo, is he well connected with City or UEFA anyone know?

Maybe not in the room, but having to face question after question as their media duties were carried out.

Assuming over video link.

If true why would Uefa ask for it to be pushed back if they were expecting good news?

Makes no sense CL draw or not, in fact the opposite, they would love to rub our nose in it, with the Worlds media watching and asking questions, albeit over a video link.

Initially I thought the same, however I think it’s more likely that they want the draw being “the news” and then the CAS verdict being the news. They don’t want the one taking away from the other.

Keegan's a Yonner and not liked at City.

Used to work for the M.E.N, so the story could have come from either side haha.

Well 13 more days and we will know.

It's a Monday and United-Soton is scheduled in PL. Solskjaer will want to celebrate CL qualification for 5th on that night.

When is the RM game?

People in power don't bury good news, just bad.

City getting the ban overturned, on the day of the CL qf and sf draw would be catastrophic for uefa.

Well that could be a bad sigh, perhaps United leaked story to Keegan..
