Sheffield United should discover later today whether their fight to avoid relegation from the Premier League has been successful.A three-man arbitration panel will finish hearing a challenge brought by the Blades against the Premier League.
Sheffield United plc chairman Kevin McCabe: "I think the panel recognise all the points of the case.
"It's about righting the wrongs from the first decision. That's really part of the arbitration proceedings and why we served the notice on the Premier League back in mid-May."
The Blades want the panel to order a fresh disciplinary hearing against West Ham over the Carlos Tevez affair.
The Blades are claiming that West Ham should have been docked points by an independent commission for including third-party agreements when they signed Tevez and Javier Mascherano last August, contrary to Premier League rules.
The three-man panel's main role is to see whether the correct disciplinary procedures were followed.
To date Newcastle play West Ham at St James' Park on Saturday 22nd September and away in East London on Saturday 26th April.
