    Seems to me that, notwithstanding the hours of argument (and waffle) and the £££,£££s of legal costs incurred, the verdict is likely to be precisely that predicted by many here weeks ago.
    Namely that: 
    1. the sale by Panorama to Lex Dom is indeed contingent on the buyer (i.e. owner of LD - currently PE) passing the EFL's OADT
    2. the buyer has the right, under that contract, for its appeal against the EFL's initial rejection to be seen through to the completion.
    Thus the injunction preventing Panorama from selling CAFC to a third party will be granted and take effect until such time as the appeal process is completed. 
    If the appeal is successful then ownership of CAFC will vest with Lex Dom. If it isn't, it stays with Panorama.

    Ball in EFL's court.

    That's my reading of it too. Problem is, who is chairing the appeal & when will it be heard. If it's an independent tribunal  (who seem to take ages just to convene) then we could be fucked.

    Should we be concerned that now Farnell has sold Lex Dominus, that all evidence against him today will just be dismissed by judge?
    Surely not he acted for multiple parties. A clear conflict of interest.

    Obviously we had the late start and then probably two-and-a-half hours of legal representation.

    Oh stop Lauren, please... He's already dead!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
    Fuck that. Take no chances and (metaphorically) chop him up into itty bitty pieces and spread them to the 4 winds.

    Didn't hear Chaisty bring up any legal precedent?

    LK arguing that damages would be a perfectly adequate remedy therefore no injunction needed (and harm caused to Panorama would be disproportionate)
  • Should we be concerned that now Farnell has sold Lex Dominus, that all evidence against him today will just be dismissed by judge?
    Surely the link is there and it must mean something?
    I agree. It was just a negative thought that popped in to my head. Hopefully the judge will deem it relevant.

    Yes, let the crooks fight each other for the money. Just get them ALL out of the club. That includes you MM and TN.

    Now describing the EFL's relevance, albeit currently hypothetical


  • Judge is not sure at all if we'll reach a conclusion today. Kreamer concerned that we'll struggle to get everybody back on at a different time. Chaisty/Judge already confirmed they are not free tomorrow morn. #cafc #SaveCAFC

    We're going to plow on for now. Kreamer says she has 15-20 minutes of further argument.

    Stating very unlikely that Elliottttt could be approved by the EFL given the wording of their response alongside their rules

    Someone let me know if cahones appears at farnells with a tray of tea a biscuits. 


  • Kreamer argues court should take the course of action that would cause the least irreversible damage. Argues risk to #cafc outweighs risk to Lex Dominus

    Now addressing source and sufficiency issue - Farnelliot dont have it. Bury FC now raised, Chaisty's arguments being rebutted.

    Kreamer says Mihael asserts there is a "very real risk" of serious sanctions - including expulsion - being imposed on the club. Mentions Bury. "It is not pie in the sky to state a football club - as a matter of fact - be expelled and cease to exist."

    Can't the judge just make up his mind later/overnight & give his decision tomorrow. Does anyone actually have to be there ??

    When you hate someone and don't even know what they look like, that's Chaisty
    So you have an image to direct your anger towards... :-)

    It may be telling that ESI2 have not explained why they expect to win the EFL appeal. Surely if it was on a technicality that was easy to remedy, they would refer directly to what that was. The EFL have had loads of time to have heard this. They are a disgrace to the game.
