repsonse to popla appeal

Hi I am new to this forum and hope you can help me as I suspect I am one of those people that the operators rely on to just pay up and I am fed up of their tactics. I am however feeling a little overwhelmed now having read all the newbie pages.
I parked on private land at the invitation of the owner with a legitimate reason ( and proof) to be there but I failed to register the vehicle with the operator who issued a PCN. I appealed directly but they rejected it and gave me a POPLA no . As I was going on holiday I submitted a popla appeal to a PCN from CE in a hurry and didn't do my homework with you guys first so Ive not given myself the best defence. ( I am very cross with myself) The owner has written to CE on my behalf to withdraw the PCN which I included in my POPLA appeal along with a no material loss argument but so far no joy. I have now received a response to the popla appeal by the operator. I know I need to comment on it within the timescales and am looking for angles. Before I draft something up can you help me focus on what might work ? They major on there being adequate signage , the contract , Beavis to justify the charge. Is my best chance of success ( unless they cancel it) to focus on no evidence of authority to issue PCN by owner - ( in fact the reverse ) and how much new stuff can I add in at this stage? Thanks in advance . all help gratefully received.
