I think we’d have a right to appeal the punishment, it may seem cheeky but still worth a shot. I don’t think Uefa would be too petty about it.

There's so much old money, the reputation of UEFA and potentially seismic fallout for the future of FFP that I just can't see us 'winning'.
Happy by name and happy by, er...

I think if they win tomorrow they will go off into the sunset gloating,i don't see why they would negotiate with us,they will have done the bidding of the big clubs and tebas etc,looks like from our early statement that we would take it further if we lost
I don’t understand if there are any avenues of redress after this? Anyway still trust the club have this all covered.

I don't know for sure but I think City settled the initial alleged breach without conceding guilt. Technically yes but evidentially, not so much. None of us know enough details, though, in terms of the gravity of the alleged offence and what penalties have been dished out to other clubs in the past. Plus, I seem to think City are saying the new rules were applied retrospectively.
The whole settlement process is seen by UEFA as a second chance. City did not accept they breached but that is not relevant to CAS especially where we are considering the scenario where they have found in UEFAs favour. Of course you are entitled to disagree.

Feeling stressed? Watch New Order live in Glasgow the other night and have a beer.

I'm afraid to say that I believe football is corrupt at just about every level and while I am not suggesting that the CAS panel are susceptible to corruption, I don't think it is beyond the realms of possibility that pressure may have been brought to bear.
In cases like this, as with most of life, money wins.
For what it's worth, I think we are guilty of at best bending the rules, at worst breaking them. If we do 'win' it will be on a point of procedure, not the fact that we are innocent.
When you consider some of the cases CAS have judged on and some of the people along the way they have ruled against It fills me with confidence an upset UEFA would be the least of their worries. Similarly a lot more powerful organisations have lost at CAS so if they were to be corrupted, I would imagine its reputation would have already been tainted, which does not seem the case.

How are you doing lovely ?I think we’d have a right to appeal the punishment, it may seem cheeky but still worth a shot. I don’t think Uefa would be too petty about it.
I don’t see why we couldn’t negotiate with UEFA to reduce ? At the end of the day we still need to work with them and have a good relationship going forwardI don’t understand if there are any avenues of redress after this? Anyway still trust the club have this all covered.
