Got a spare in the paddock tonight, can transfer via portal. £35

The mens rea in this particular circumstance is irrelevant (though I take the point I used the term blatant). Studding a player on the face (endangering an opponent), with what could easily be conceived as a deliberate stamp, is a red card, we and he got away with one. Anyway, back to the ale...

Well, you know, work and life get in the way of spending hours posting. No desire to call anyone out in particular, but willing to be objective. If that had happened against JP we'd all be up in arms.

A welcome after 11 years - thanks (might be worth checking when someone has signed up and their post history before inferring they are a kopite 🤣 Otherwise you could look a bit silly). He did the same against Arsenal this season and was again lucky not to be sent off.

Here we go

Have you seen it back? Was trying to find a clip, it was floating around twitter. It was a blatant kick out at his face. Has form for this, does our Ben.

No-one mentioning the one we away with for Godfrey yesterday? The second kick out on Ederson was as clear a red card as I've seen.

Thanks for pointing that out, I feel dizzy and restless looking at it now 😬 haha.

In fairness, you are describing most 100+ year organisations here and most modern workplaces so shouldnt really come as a surprise, but couldn't agree more 🤣

Break down which 3 seasons the initial deduction came from. Then break down the 3 seasons the new charge has come from. Do two of the three overlap?

Probably because what you are saying is wrong. They have already been punished for the breach for 2/3rds of the time frame, the only way it's a new breach is if it happened in last years accounts.

Why should we accept any level of points deductions based on rules that the PL and clubs are acknowledging are antiquated and not fit for purpose? Weve admitted guilt, but its guilt to rules that the clubs now accept don't work. So, it'll literally be a deduction that's exclusive to Everton...

Looking at this, he was a very lucky boy to stay on the pitch. Wouldn't be surprised if this is why he was hooked

Is it though? It would be an NDA involving Premier League clubs and the the Premier League, two parties - the league and it's associate members. The independent review would presumably be happy with resolution between the clubs and league. - PSR rule changes are pushed through with a caveat...

The quality of the build up is less questionable than the finishing - not a huge fan of the metric but our xG would suggest we are creating plenty of opportunities, just not taking them.
