I think the issue is that initial verdicts will come before the end of the season but the appeals won’t get completed until after, possibly long after at the pace we’re seeing.
The PL has deadlines for relegation to be formally ratified and if a team has a points deduction that’s still under appeal what happens then? There’s a potential scenario where a team gets back points on appeal that should then keep them up, but it’s too late under the rules to “de-relegate” them. And then all hell breaks loose in the courts.
Something similar did happen with Calciopoli but you are right, it’s a ridiculous situation
