Innocent until proven guilty. The FA cannot suspend a player and then accuse us of failing to sell him because he is suspended. This is a farce.

You have two outcomes. Either overspending helped us stay up or it didn't. The tribunal would have to decide which was the more likely outcome.

Time for our famous defiance to show and refuse to accept this.
"We get knocked down but we get up again you are never going to send us down" should be our new anthem
with " f u the premier league" at the end loud and clear!

Disgusting.
Chelsea and Man City have done far worse and got off Scott free.
I hope this creates a seige mentality.
We will stay up and give 2 fingers to the corrupt Premier League

What about the BBC football expert talking about our next league game at Old Trafford?

So many of our mitigations have been rejected because "well you should just have sold players then"
This is FFP in a nutshell: helping the vultures at bigger clubs get all the best players to keep the rest at arms length. Had a bad couple of years financially? Give us your players or we'll take your points.

It isn't though. The FA and Everton have a duty of care to young players.
Would you be happy for your child to be taught by a teacher who had been arrested for child sex offences based on him being innocent until proven guilty?
Short tribunal then. Nothing we spent that season solely resulted in points.

Just knew we would be the fall guys,yes we have wronged,but by under £20 million?in football terms that is a run of the mill transfer fee,talk about punishment not befitting the crime
unbelievable but then again totally believable with the witch hunt that has gone on.

It was the lead story on BBC news at 6
The net spend on players over the past 5 years has been chicken feed. There's no sporting advantage gained. Issue mainly surrounds funding of the ground, potential interest relating to that, sponsorship and how all of that was accounted for.
I.e., matters that didn't materially change the performances on the pitch.
It's not as if we had some blue chip players on loan being paid £250k a week that made key contributions to the team performing better than they otherwise would have done.

That's fine - but the Premier League cannot then say to Everton that we are hitting you with a 10-point penalty because you have failed to sell a player who we suspended because we have a duty of care. Where is the mitigation? You can blame Everton for a lot of things, but you cannot use a case that effectively put them over the spending limit as the stick to beat them with when they carried out their duty of care.
I'm all for Everton being held accountable. But I'm not for Everton bending over and passing back the lube.
And, yes, suspend the "teacher" - but don't try to close the school then because you're a teacher short and exceeded the budget trying to source a replacement.
