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

I don't think UEFA can bypass their own rules over the 5 year limit merely by bumping it upstairs.

Isn't that the basis of our appeal to CAS, that they've rushed it and ignored due process?

Yes, but my point is that the AC can't investigate it afresh (to my knowledge).

It would certainly look strange, and make the deadlines slightly pointless, but I don't know exactly what can/can't be done.

What can be done is, prejudge, make a decision, ban us and leak this through certain officials who then brief the press. What can't be done is announce it officially as that would make it look like it is a kangaroo court. Which it may or may not be.

I see our owner has spent £280 million buying 32% of Virgin Galactic. In the Torygraph. No mention of human rights in the article....

We should get a Northern sponsor like Hovis or Uncle Joe's Mint Balls ....

I nearly choked on uncle Joe’s balls!

Why would there be, I believe Virgin look after their workers ;)

Unless they change their own rules and apply them retrospectively, which is pretty much what went on last time we 'failed' ffp. I'd imagine this is part of the reason the club want it going straight to CAS.

Isn't the lead investigator on the AC generally known as "skip", an abbreviation of Skippy, to give the judgement some validity?

Ha ha. Don't know, but I will take your word for it.
