Whatever the outcome the appeal process will kick in after the verdict is given . Expect a few more months of this

I doubt we could afford to appeal?
I wonder if there is any chance the Judge is trying to broker an acceptable deal to both parties in the background, or does it have to come down to a final Judgement?

I must admit, I am really surprised she hasn't reach a decision yet. I didn't expect a decision overnight, but I certainly expected one by now. Unfortunately I get the distinct feeling that awaiting the outcome of the UWE is stopping us signing players. I do fear a loss of the court case may mean no additional funds for Darrell at all?! ![:-/](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/undecided.png) Im not suprised at the wait because of the implications of this case, and ensuring the correct verdict is given to prevent an appeal, but i have wondered why there was a change of judge. I think the reality was the wait for the verdict was always going to be a long one

Or the team was working so well by the end of the season that for once we're not falling over ourselves desperately plugging the gaps, allowing Darrell to take his time in making sure we get the right man at the right price.

There may not be an appeal granted, all depends on what grounds the aggrieved party believes they can legally appeal

Regardless I thought NH asked for a quick decision as the UWE wouldn't wait much longer?
Personally I feel if the Judge finds in Sainsbury's favour then we should accept defeat and moved on as we're never going to beat Sainsbury's unlimited funds for legal costs.

The Wonga loan was taken out to cover the costs of this case and we will not be covering Sainsbury's cost, even if we lose as we are defending this action. Defendants are not expected to pay the costs of the party taking out the action.
There is no problem with UWE, they are happy to wait as they are desperate for the stadium to be built.

I've been following this story with great interest, of course and there are a lot of people talking about compensation if Sainsbury's lose. Now I'm not sure if my understanding of the process is correct but as they are the plaintiff and not the defendant I'm thinking its safe to assume that the Judge wont be able to award damages against them. If they do lose the case I guess the onus will be left for another court process to start for the compensation to be decided and that on top of any appeals process that they want to start. I could be completely wrong here of course. Any one have any idea?

I just woke up from my pre work nap, I had a really vivid dream that we won, that Saintsbury's had offered us a reduced amount of 21 million which we knocked back so they took us to court to get out of the contract, now I feel a bit sad that it's not true, oh and that I am dreaming of Rovers' court cases as well.

UWE probably/definitely are wanting something to happen ASAP on a piece of prime real-estate, but South Glos Council are still very keen as it helps them meet certain criteria for their area masterplan and (I assume) get a gold star and/or massive grants for doing so...

Regardless of what the outcome of the case is it will not effect this years budget because both parties will appeal the decision The judge may not give leave to appeal. Anyone else remember the good old days of the TrasH JR where they lost and the judge said "if you want to appeal you must do it this week" and they then did and he came back the next day and told them to go away.....good times.... ![:|](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/plain.png)

Just about everyone I thought? I could have sworn that Nick Higgs himself said that we needed an answer from the judge asap in order to avoid the UWE pulling out? It was also published in the papers a few times I'm sure?

NH told Judge Roth we need a decision by the summer as the UWE wanted a quick decision, is NH really going to lie to the Judge if the UWE?
Regardless at some point the UWE will decide they may as well move on and use the land for something else.

Just for the record, the Lambert money was received a year ago.
