Why do we still keep fucking around and no go to the actual courts? It's like watching politicians get really active and talk about all the ills of society without meaning to actually get anything done when election season comes around.
I think that the FA's have rules that stipulate all hereaings regarding football issues must be judged in-house.
A club in my country sued FRF(FIGC) in a civil court and by doing so got demoted to the equivalent of Serie B.
The funny thing is the club won some 80 million in damages în the first court but lost on appeal . So in the end they got nothing.
I don't know if TAS can help in the matter .
