Has the hearing finished now? I though I read something suggesting that was the case, when will we expect to hear a verdict (before any inevitable appeal from either side)

Finished on Friday. Some reports say end of year, some end of january.

Appeal should last into next season, certainly.

[Cerbie]

The appeal is to the current panel I think, certainly not to CAS.

Yes. But they'll use every avenue possible with the money they have to burn, if they indeed need to appeal.

[Norbs]

They'll appeal and win. All pockets nicely lined.

[Assassin]

I’m fairly sure they cannot appeal

[Sus]

I think they can but not to CAS, as it’s an English case

Maybe the case……

When found guilty they wouldn’t get that verdict overturned. At best a reduction in pelanty

[Sus]

Fair enough

[DerKrampus]

They can't appeal to CAS though right?

Not thru CAS, but through the UK legal system

An initial appeal is to an independent PL panel. Then they could have a judicial review, but that would be on the process not the outcome.

[frank the tank]

They'll get a points deduction in the season where they ain't gonna win anything anyway.

Just like Everton and Forest got points deductions when they weren't going to get relegated that year.

****in jokeshop

And a 5 year ban from any transfers

They’ve dropped off the cliff as their trial was coming to an end, they know what’s coming and have lost the plot. It’s coming!
