Comments for POPLA

Duplicate thread - please ignore
Hi there,
So my appeal just came back from POPLA with the evidence pack from the PPC. My original appeal was on four grounds:
1) No breach of contract (relates to inaccurate info provided by the vendor (university)).
2) Unlawful charge - Three duplicate PCNs issued for one single parking event (the car was not moved between each PCN)
3) No evidence of landowner authority
4) Inadequate signage
The PPC have sent in a bunch of additional photos, none of which seem to counter my claims on point 4. They also sent a copy of the contract (redacted), plus a generic overall statement (which is an exact copy of another one I found on here). It includes this line: "The appellant has failed to provide us with a full name and serviceable address of the driver at the time of contravention, we have now invoked keeper liability." This is inaccurate and does not relate at all to my case, as I (stupidly) provided my info in my original appeal, not knowing any better. Clearly, the PPC has simply attached pics of my car to a copy paste statement. I don't feel that their 'evidence' is comprehensive enough to counter all of my points.
My question is: what approach should I take in providing my comments to give the best impression on POPLA? Is there a specific process to follow? And should my tone be suitably firm and point out their errors and poor attention to detail?
TIA for any tips.
