Judge rules in Cardiff City favour

The claim for Summary Judgement by Langston has been dismissed by Mr Justice Briggs.

The judge said the case was "clearly unsuitable for summary determination".

He also refused Langston permission to appeal to the Court of Appeal.

The judge was invited by both sides in the dispute to delay the full hearing of the case for two months in the hope that it can now be resolved without the need for further court action.

Langston must decide if they will accept the current terms of the loan repayment, negotiate a possible new deal with Cardiff City or take the matter to a full expensive and very complex court case that could take a couple of years.

There is no doubt that the money is owed. But thanks to Justice Briggs not due for immediate payment.

Great news for Cardiff City.
This court case could have seriously damaged Cardiff, sending them into administration. Now lets hope they can sit down and sort it out properly. Sam Hamman is now hated by the fans after this.

surely nobody genuinely thought Hamman would have the clubs interests at heart?

All is not as peachy as some may think.

Cardiff have only won the rights to defend themselves. So the case will go to high courts some time next year, so its still costing the club a lot of money. But hopefully it will be sorted out of court.

With luck it will all get sorted before the full trial, though in a perverse sort of way i'd like to see that W****R sam hamman squirm in the witness box,
