As we all know the law is fraught with technicalities that clever lawyers exploit to their clients benefit. When the points deduction was imposed even Fry was at pains to point out that it was the holding company and NOT the footy club that went into adminstration and that it was an incorrect decision by FL to impose the points penalty.
If the case was that watertight why are the football league insisting that we should not go to the courts and why indeed do they now need an emergency meeting on Monday?
Like many others have already said, if they are that convinced they are right let us have our day in court, lose the case and they can have their costs. Methinks they realise that the way the points penalty was imposed was not within their own rules and therefore a clever lawyer will make mincemeat of their decision.
Just hope the deal goes through this last hitch has really ruined my day I was so looking forward to everything being done and dusted today:(
