Palace potentially denied entry to Europa League?

[Jason Smith]

You clearly don't know their rules, we weren't compliant to them, however unfair they are.

Take no notice of them. They share the same brain cell: it’s called cut and paste!

How can you be sure


Notable CAS Decisions Overruling UEFA
1. Manchester City – 2020
Issue: UEFA banned City for two years from European competitions for alleged breaches of Financial Fair Play (FFP).

CAS Ruling: Overturned the ban, citing insufficient conclusive evidence and time-barred allegations.

Outcome: City was reinstated into the Champions League.

2. FC Barcelona – 2024
Issue: UEFA imposed sanctions related to financial irregularities.

CAS Ruling: Overturned or reduced penalties after reviewing procedural fairness and proportionality.

3. ŠK Slovan Bratislava – 2022
Issue: UEFA disqualified the club over COVID-related match cancellations.

CAS Ruling: Reinstated the club, ruling UEFA’s decision lacked procedural fairness.

4. Football Union of Russia – 2022
Issue: UEFA suspended Russian teams following geopolitical events.

CAS Ruling: While CAS upheld some bans, it overturned others based on competition-specific criteria.

5. FK Bodø/Glimt & Coach Kjetil Knutsen – 2022
Issue: UEFA sanctioned Knutsen for alleged misconduct.

CAS Ruling: Cleared him of wrongdoing, citing lack of evidence.

Well researched, and thanks. Let us hope, ‘lacked procedural fairness’ will be the decisive argument in our favour.

For what its worth, which isn’t much, I do believe we will be reinstated, and will go on to win it!

DO WE ACTUALLY GET INTO THE CONFERENCE LEAGUE NOW OR IS THAT A NO GO

 

[Jason Smith]

When you see Rob Holding lift the trophy as the green rain pours down at AFC Chernobyl, tell me your heart won't swell with pride?

Yep, I’ll be glowing with it!

No, i don't live in a fantasy world like you, if we have done nothing wrong we will appeal, but he wont because he dropped a b*****k

Did you miss the bit where he says he is not able to force someone to put their shares into a trust and that no one would realistically do that in early March anyway given our circumstances. The rules are an ass and not fit for purpose which is the thrust of Parish’s argument.

Gives the squad players e.g Nketiah, . Esse, Franca, Devenney etc. a chance to get regular starts. If West Ham, and Chelsea, in a canter, can win it then so should Palace. That would give Palace a trophy and entry to the Europa in 2026/7

Actually yhe Champions League

 

[theorist]

Woody rings Trump.
Trump rings Infantino (FIFA has just opened an office in Trump Tower, NYC, and are as eager as a dog begging for treats to gain Trump's endearment).
Infantino rings CAS and informs them of the error of EUFA's ways.

Why don’t you do one Mate..!!

We’ll see second game of the season who the better team is..!!

And the better chairman.

 

[Jason Smith]

So a 50 million fine; how much will they gain from playing in the Europa League. Probably more than that. And what penalty have the French football authorities dished out to Lyon for originally being 400 million in debt? Anything?

They decided not to fix it so they could enter the Champions League again. Ungrateful, just downright ungrateful for all that hard work they put in as a founder member of the ECA.

 

[Jefroc]

He wont appeal, he hasn't the cojones, the missed email was the mistake and that is down to him, he is the man in charge, he takes the blame, Textor new trouble was waiting, Parish it seems didn't.

So EUFA's take about the definition of 'controlling interest' is so flexible they make no sense to anyone but themselves, and only as and when, it needs to be applied is Parrish's responsibility? That at this time Parrish is holding his cards close to his chest is only right imo. That he is a lifelong Palace fan is another reason why he's right for Palace. Better that than some billionaire money grabbing yank!!

Btw, Botafogo's players and fans are furious because their manager has been sacked. Why? Owner Textor fired him as the manager wouldn't let him, Textor, interfere with team selection. If only teams were owned solely by fans!!!

 

[dreamwaverider]

This could be a blessing in disguise. Much easier entry into europe. Win the conference and we will be ready for Champions league by then.
Gives Woody and us a chance to gel.
Best that Textor and his failing multi level model stays well away.

Parrish will take them to the cleaners. He is a Palace fan since a kid. Have trust.

Did you miss the bit where Forest read the email and requested an extension to get the shares put into a blind trust to comply with UEFA

It was a great plan until Infantino rings up the European Union and they say "What the fk do we have to do with football? Go away you idiot".

Meanwhile, Steve Parish on Sky

Too early for such sensible considerations!
BTW, the Conference League also has its pitfalls and is not always a walk in the park. One of these is the fact that most participating clubs have the opportunity to cover a large part of their budget by collecting points and getting as far as possible, which often leads to physical play and the risk of serious injuries. Playing a club from the English Premier League is also an additional challenge for them.

 

[inflikted]

A good opportunity for the squad players, but apart from that nothing!

Gotta hope Lincoln Red Imps make it to the Group Stage then at least you mght get a nice trip to the Algarve out of it (since Gibraltar teams have to play anything beyond Q3 in Portugal while their main stadium gets rebuilt).
