    The makems are out in force again today.

    They're obviously getting a little uncomfortable again.

    Drink it in.

    The arbitration hearing begins either this week or next. This is nearly over.

    If they lose we can expect an influx of makems and lurkers.

    We can't be sure mate as de marco said himself it's a lottery if it gets that far and is a last resort

    Can't honestly see how it can fail.

    The PL has to demonstrate that there is no separation AND that it will be MBS running the club.

    Thry have to provide evidence demonstrating that MBS will be making the day to day decisions. They can't.

    We live I world where things don't go as they seem they should.

    caution is wise.. There was no way it wasn't going to go through last summer as I recall.

    "I'm never confident about the outcome of any case because all cases have some real risk with them," he told the Price of Football podcast.

    "Despite appearances I can tell you I rarely encourage my clients to go to court or arbitration.

    "I usually tell them it's very risky, it's very costly, it takes a lot of time, however strong you think your case is things can go wrong and if there is a way of dealing with it commercially or by a deal with the regulator in some way - which there can be before charges are brought - you should explore that.

    The scrutiny on this will be interesting.

    Perhaps that is what he has been trying to do.

    Or he's just telling his clients he doesn't guarantee a result

    Exactly and its exactly why I've been saying it won't go to arbitration for months, but it looks like plan Z is coming.

    It's a lottery according to other qcs.

    At some point people need to realise this could go either way at arbitration

    I'm still hoping it doesn't go to arbitration

    Well that's a given.

    But in this instance it's going to go Mike Ashley's way

    Our transfer budget this summer is apparently extremely small.
