Crystal Palace learn deadline for decision on Europa League fate after launching appeal

Steve Parish is confident that Crystal Palace will win their Europa League appeal to CAS after being demoted to the Conference League over a multiclub ownership issue Crystal Palace have formally lodged their appeal with the Court of Arbitration for Sport over UEFA's decision to kick them out of the Europa League. ‌ The Eagles will learn of CAS's decision before August 11 with chairman Steve Parish saying last week that the FA Cup winners are confident of a U-turn. ‌ Palace were demoted to the Conference League by UEFA after the governing body ruled that they were in breach of its multi-club ownership rules. ‌ American businessman John Textor owns a 43% stake in Palace – which he is in the process of selling to Woody Johnson – and is the majority shareholder of Lyon, who had also qualified for the Europa League. The French club are prioritised by UEFA because they qualified via league ranking rather than winning a domestic cup. Palace argued to UEFA that Textor has never had any say over operational decisions at Selhurst Park and Parish last week told the Rest is Football podcast: "We are still fighting. "There's an appeal process, so we go to Cas, and we're very hopeful. We think we've got great legal arguments. "We don't think this is the right decision by any means. We know, unequivocally, that John [Textor] didn't have decisive influence over the club. We know we proved that beyond all reasonable doubt because it's a fact." CAS said that the appeal is also against Lyon and Nottingham Forest, who are set to replace Palace in the Europa League should the court rule that UEFA's decision was correct. ‌ Parish previously said after UEFA's initial announcement on July 11: 'We are obviously devastated, most importantly for the supporters, supporters of all clubs should be devastated for it. 'This means something, you win a cup for the first time in your history and it's like winning the lottery and going to the counter and not getting the prize. 'It is a bad day for football. Most right-minded football fans will see what a terrible injustice this is for the football club and one that I hope someone can remedy because I do believe that nobody in football wants to see this, I don't think UEFA want to see it. Clubs that rightly qualify being locked out on the most ridiculous technicality that you could imagine.'

World's oldest single malt whisky to be released by Highland firm

Family-owned Gordon and MacPhail have announced that an 85-year-old whisky cask from Glenlivet Distillery has been emptied and bottled ahead of being on the market in October. On 3 February 1940 in the north-east of Scotland, George Urquhart (fondly known as Mr George) and his father, John, laid down the spirit in an American oak cask.

Director of prestige and member of the fourth generation of the family that owns the company, Stephen Rankin, said: 'This whisky is truly exceptional due to its remarkable history and unique maturation process. "The influence of the cask, combined with the rarity and scarcity of the liquid, creates a whisky with a strength of 43.7% ABV that is not only extraordinary in its taste but also a living piece of history.' Decanter #1 will also be auctioned by Christie's New York in November 2025.
