  • I can see this going to trial. Disaster for the club.
    Yeah looks that way... Time for TS to pay people off 
  • Oh f**k. This judge sounds like he is going to take the conservative route and propose a “speedy trial” by November.

    Judge Richard Pearce feels the case could be tried in November. "I doubt the necessary procedural steps could be taken for October. I'd have thought allowing for six weeks and speedy witness and limited disclosure the case could reach a stage to be tried in November."

    Nervous last few minutes.....squeak bum time
  • Why doesn't the judge know about TS sale? It might not be imminent but its far along to be of significance?
    There was no detail about it in the submitted evidence
  • Think we may be hitting the wall now where judge is not a football fan and knows and cares nothing about players, transfers, embargoes and squad strength;



    Kreamer: A further urgency to take into consideration is that the season starts in 11 days. While these various issues are not resolved the club is not able to buy players. If the matter can't be resolved till Nov, that's not enough time for #cafc to buy players.

    I think the injunction will be granted so that it can go to full trial. 
    Definitely looking this way. 

    Elliott’s lawyer has been able to create enough doubt around the ownership to (in the judges mind) justify a trial. 

    Don’t think we’ve been able to show any imminent harm to the club/ESI should the injunction be granted and a full trial initiated. 
    What?  LK has clearly pointed out the club could cease to exist.

    Hope he swerves at last minute and says trial but no injunction.

    Seems like the judge really wants a trial. Does not seem to get the risks.

    To be honest, MM made that likely. What a plank.

    Makes sense to not grant an injunction and let Panorama and Lex Dominus battle it out for damages at court... Both want to maximise profit on a sale so it doesn't make a difference who sells if a court are going to decide who are due the money anyway

    THAT is the fairest outcome

    Any sort of delay means our transfer embargo remains. 

    Come on EFL just say Elllliotttt will never pass your test and lift the embargo. 
  • Trial odds on.  Mihail and EFL screwed us.
  • I can see this going to trial. Disaster for the club.
    I might be misreading what the LK is saying, but it seems the argument is that if it is allowed to go to trial then there's no need for an injunction - i.e. the sale to Sandgaard can go ahead. 
  • We is fecked!

    Seems from my bias perspective that esi 2 gave nothing of note in their argument and just were clambering for a postponement. Surely any judge should see through this especially when LK has done such a good job

    Judge reckons there is no immient takeover so doesn't matter about season starting soon

    Yeah because this is all to let TS know who he should be dealing with surely
    Didn't TS say it could be done by Wednesday?

    Probably by design in my opinion.

    He's one of them don't forget.

    November isn't speedy. We have a transfer embargo and won't be able to strengthen until the next window. That is if we exist by then with a buyer waiting to buy us and two bunches of crooks fighting over who owns us.

    Yes - but how is that shown? What basis is that on?

    It could I imagine but the judge doesn't know that
  • Judge bottling it just like the EFL. how do these pricks get in to positions of power.

    MM didn't indicate that was the case at all.
