Good luck to Parish and Palace if they go to CAS. Textor at fault, missed deadline, Uefa stickler for rules but inconsistent on punishments (meaningless fines v damaging demotions). Case is common sense v the rules. will need good legal
to overturn. It’s a technicality but others abided by it.
If Palace do go to CAS, I hope the FA go with them in support. Palace fans, players and management, the whole club, brought such joy and renewed relevance to the FA Cup. I hope the FA remembers that. The ruling is, indirectly, it could be argued, an attack on the FA Cup.
Wonder if anyone will suggest a Palace-Lyon play-off?! If Palace fail in any appeal I hope they go and tear up the Conference League. May 27 final at the RB Arena, Leipzig. The irony. #CPFC
