6 + 2 Point Deductions


“Whatever the appeal panel decide will be the final deduction”

So they have already decided it won’t be fully overturned and a deduction of (some) points will definitely stay in place.

I think people read into these comments a little bit too much.

The independent panel ( boys club ) make the final decision and if they wanted could even increase the deduction.
 

From the Forest side this is a new experience, but based on what Masters said today we think these are the key points. Would be good if you lads could confirm:

1) Everton (record holders for seasons in the top division) and Forest (twice as many European Cups as City) are ‘small clubs’

2) 1 accusation in 2023 is treated more seriously, and swiftly, than 115 accusations before 2023

3) there is a date to look at City’s alleged offences - this date is a secret, but it won’t be this season. The precise timescale for Forest and Everton being assessed is widely published and any punishment will be this season.

4) Coincidentally, the rules will change between this season and next season

5) alleged offences by Forest and Everton are treated one at a time, and immediately. Alleged offences by City are only assessed once every detail of all 115 is known.

Feel free to correct any of this - it’s a steep learning curve
1) It was Damien Green that inferred Everton was a” small “ Masters made reference to the early reply that FFP( P&S) applies to all clubs and had any club broken the allowable sum they would have been charged

2) Didn’t get that at all the point he kept making is the City charges aren’t under the P&S regulations. That’s a point I tried to make the other day

3) He didn’t say it won’t be this season but he did say in essence was that the proceedings aren’t under his jurisdiction annd are controlled by the independent head.

4) The reason there is a requirement for the rules changing ( although the clubs will have to agree) is driven by UEFAs changes and will almost for certain be around squad cost ratios .

5) No one seems to have picked up the point that according to Masters said that the PL wanted the 2022 charge to be dealt with in the 22/23 season but Everton objected and the IP agreed with Everton.
The charges that were faced by Everton and now Everton and Forest are single charges. Cities really are far more complex and we’re always going to take longer particularly as City took matters to the High Court , have failed to release documents indeed blocked matters at every step
 
Nar man, never be ashamed, football is war.
Is right lad
