Now that CAS have declared Sala was our player

Now that CAS have declared Sala was our player and the contract was valid all along, that lets Nantes out as they could argue that the undischarged bankrupt agent, who we would never get a penny from anyway, was no longer acting for them.

The proposed litigation against the Insurance brokers smacks of desperation so it seems to me only one outcome is likely, Tan having to pay up, how can Dalman say we haven’t got the money?

I thought that he’d said that money had been put aside for this.

Also if the contract was valid and is in play , it opens up the clauses that are separate from player registration

Sued for what Wez?

When Sala flew back to Uk, Sala was officially our player.

The agents were Warnocks mates and had two players playing for us at that time.

Actually I agree of course the flight was illegal.
Show me where Nantes arranged it please ?

There selling agent arranged it so yes nantes are involved in that as explained by Paul on here lots of times.

The agent who arranged it was acting on Nantes instructions and being paid by them.

That is where this part of the dispute is going.

Now I don’t know whether this will be successful but it’s the first part of the arguments that will come before a variety of courts/tribunals in the coming months/years.

As I have said time and time again, this will not be resolved any time soon.

However, if we don’t win the outstanding decision due Jan/Feb the embargo may mean that Tan has to consider paying that initial instalment and hope we get it back during the ongoing litigation.

Agree, there was a good reason of the French law by someone on here a while ago nantes can be sued .

Regardless of the legalities and the horrific human costs of things. We are unwittingly the innocent parties and seemingly guilty only of an administrative oversight I.e failure to insure him as callous as that sounds.

We signed a player in good faith. Offered him transport back which was declined. The organising agent then stuck him on a wholly dangerous and ill equipped plane with a wholly dangerous and ill equipped pilot.
We then are in the shit for 15 million.

Regardless of what you think of tan. I think most would seek to minimise financial liability.

Sorry if that annoys people. I don’t mean to. But our club didn’t ask for any of this. All we did was sign a player. This should have been dealt with a long time ago and perhaps we should have been in talks with Nantes to soften the blow or gone after the broker immediately.

Why don’t we have a policy that automatically covers a player as soon as he signs? A car dealer can have a policy that covers them on any car they drive without letting the insurer know. They have similar policies in the states for example.

I agree with where you're coming from completely and think most would, I think it's the way it's been handled that's pissed people off. Very good point on the insurance, I've got my own business and can log into Midas and add or remove vehicles myself. Plus automatically insured up to x amount on any vehicle fully comp.

I can’t tax or drive away with a new car without insurance. That’s probably why they have the 5 days free service. It’s bizarre that we have more provisions In place for a car than a human being.

What disgusts me most is that Dalman has said several times that money has been put aside. But it hasn’t. What does this tell you and how are we to operate in this way? Then the regime says the fans need to get behind the club. Well how can we without mutual trust? I will ALWAYS support the team on the field of play but it breaks my heart having supported the City for 55 years to see us in this terrible mess

Neil Warnock's part in all of this should be questioned...

The inflated purchase fee for starters, as well as his links to McKay and the employment of the two parks players

If have been saying this for ages but no one ever doubts The Messiah.

As far as I can remember it was questioned at the time & has been on numerous occasions by numerous people.

Got any of the answers to share?

Jules, a very quick look came upwith these from around the time of Emiliano Sala's funeral...

I also recall you bringing up the topic in the past but it is one that seems to have escaped the scrutiny it may well deserve

For me, there is certainly no coincidence (the banned) McKay, Snr. was involved and two very unrated family members were in our Academy at the time too

You do not have the required permissions to view the files attached to this post.

Cheers for that Chris missed those.
Personally I still think he is up to his neck in this but will he get thrown under the bus or be too clever for the McKays?

Not sure, Jules, but for me the 'tie-in' between the two parties over many years is clear

I recall someone (maybe Forever Blue?) questioning the 'valuation' at the time of the signing, as Sala was apparently available for a lot less not too long before we wentbin for him

Well we got form there, just look at the Acorn fiasco !!!
