It was expedited to July for reasons mate which where probably for the preparation of the new season.

The whole point of it was to define a result so the club can plan.

We are now stuck between a rock and a hard place.
However assume arbitration starts next week. Decision towards end of week.
New offer submitted and PL informed. 2 to 3 weeks ODT test regardless of it's a formality. A week for final tie ups, transfer of funds and announcement. Sounds like a 5 week turnaround. Maybe I'm being optimistic and it will take 7 weeks or arbitration doesn't start for another week etc

The buyers have given up on hopes of taking the reins before the season starts.

Aiming for 31st August

6 weeks max then or never?

Just as I expected, tbh. I never believed all this about July being the month it all gets resolved. I don't care if that's technically how it's supposed to work when all we've been subjected to since April 2020 is delays and absence of information.

Would not surprise me at all if this goes on way beyond August.

I agree.... Xmas might be the time of not August and that might depend on the position of the asset they're looking to aquire.

Once ARB is resolved and if it’s in our favour it shouldn’t be more than 2-4 weeks.

I say shouldn’t because there is nothing to stop the PL delaying the O & D test again.

Shouldn't is probably the most apt word in this entire thread. It shouldn't take weeks, let alone years. It shouldn't have failed. It shouldn't be going to court. But that's corruption for ya. PL will stand by this forever, there's no August, September, Xmas deadline on this. The PL will never, ever allow it to happen.
