Their only job is to decide if UEFA have followed their own rules.
Their job isnt to decide if the rules are good rules.

Palace fans are probably taking screenshots of this thread and emailing them to CAS.

If UEFA give Palace their place back, then Forest will go to court, surely?

No right to appeal today's outcome. Well that's what CAS dressed it as.

There was recently a ruling to say that CAS decisions *could* be challenged in court to ensure they comply with some EU rules or other but I don't know:

A) When that comes into effect and
B) Whether that would apply with the UK no longer being in the EU.

It'll be the likes of Drogheda etc who would pursue an appeal if CAS takes a different course of action.

Covered this before, CAS decisions are final and cannot be appealed.  However, all CAS decisions can be challenged in Swiss Courts - this is to ensure the CAS has followed their own rules, which is to only decide if, in this case, UEFA have followed their rules correctly.

The CAS do not have any emotional say, they cannot say the rules are bad, they can only decide if the rules in place have been followed correctly.

Palace are going to try to play this like a sob story however the CAS do not listen to sob stories, they rule only on whether the rules in place have been followed or not.

Its completely pointless Palace trying this CAS appeal.......this is more smoke and mirrors to try to deflect blame and attention away from themselves imo

Palace can't say CAS haven't given them the time, the hearing has been extended by a further 2 hours.

Crystal Palace owner Steve Parish is finding it difficult to even comprehend it has got this far. The club's supporters feel the same.
For those with Palace connections, it is a nonsense that their place in the Europa League - secured following last season's historic FA Cup triumph - has been ripped away from them by Uefa red tape.
Yet they are where they are. Parish led his legal team into battle on Friday morning at a Court of Arbitration for Sport hearing which Palace hope will see them reinstated into European club football's second-most prestigious competition.
Palace feel they have assembled a strong case. Part of their appeal hinges on an understanding that Nottingham Forest were afforded extra time to comply with the same multi-club ownership rules Uefa concluded Palace had breached, but the Eagles were not given the same time.
Palace feel the simple matter of common sense means they are allowed back into the Europa League.
Often, however, common sense in football doesn't prevail. That is Parish's fear.

This is an article from Sami Mokbel of BBC Sport

You couldn't hide the bias could you.

They didn’t even try to do anything to get extra time so what the f***s all that about!?
