come again?
Fall out over stud fees from Rock of Gibralter iirc.

True but nothing has even leaked out about how the hearing went. The key players at UEFA will have a good idea and have historically shown themselves to be totally incapable of keeping anything under wraps. The usual route has been from someone at UEFA via gossip to our commercial rivals and then from them to the media. I agree about the actual decision. I don't expect anything to leak from CAS until perhaps the last minute after both parties have been briefed.
Is it usual for them to take a month to release a decision?
If it was clear cut you'd think they could do it more quickly, so it suggests to me that it's complicated and there'll probably be some sort of half way house result.

If we had irrefutable evidence, as claimed, you'd think City's legal team would know if it hit home or not. If it was a finely balanced point of law then reading it might be awkward. I am more confident now than when I was before, particularly as the media have for the first time been completely silent on the subject.They have to produce a full document going over the decision with the reasons for it and covering the evidence etc. The decision might even have been known as soon as the hearing finished.
Much more likely.It's equally feasible that no decision has actually been made yet, hence the lack of leaks.
