| Quote: Ferocious Aardvark "But the problem is - apart from the two words "[iforce majeure[/i" - we know nothing at all of the grounds of appeal. So basing a judgment on that, either it was [iforce majeure[/i, or it wasn't. If it was, it has to be all points back, and if it wasn't, appeal fails, no change.
It seems impossible to say yes, it was [iforce majeure[/i - totally outside your control - yet you still lose some of the points.
And you obviously can't have a partial [iforce majeure[/i.
And if it was force majeure then anyway surely we would be back to where I always said we should have been in the first place- namely the RFL starting again, from scratch, examining the business plans etc of BBNL and deciding on a sanction, just as they did with BB2014. The independent tribunal could not move on to such considrations as obviously none of that is anything to do with them.'"
Well said, you can't have a partial force majeure, it either is or isn't down to circumstances beyond your control, which should mean all or nothing. If this was big Nige and Ralph deciding, I might have expected a political outcome, but with a group of 'independent' lawyers, it should be 6 or nowt! Cue comments from WF ip addresses

WTW won't appeal any decision - they haven't got a pot to pee in so will have to just get on with it.
Good luck - I cannot envisage SL without the Bulls.'"
That's not what you said on the Wakey board

Is it the Chief Exec of Pinsent Masons?

Pretty much what I said some time back, to be honest, though I must say I've since been convinced by the two point argument [changes nothing and annoys everyone equally] as being the most likely. After all, when did logic have anything to do with it?

| This is RL and logic or precedent has nothing to do with it.
