Hope In Tevez Appeal

The Court of Arbitration for Sport has offered hope to West Ham's appeal against a tribunal decision ordering compensation to Sheffield United.
CAS is to hold preliminary hearing which wil decide if West Ham United's full case will be heard.
both parties must appoint an arbitrator to represent them at the initial hearing, which they must provide by tomorrow (10th October).West Ham have already appointed an arbitrator and submitted a 12-page legal document to CAS which argues that they haven't had the chance of appeal while sheffield united have appealed and appealed untill finally someone has backed so why cant we appeal this recent ruling.

This decision has since been roundly panned by the vast majority of football commentators, whose concerns about the implications the ruling could have on the English game have been voiced far and wide in recent weeks.
