6 + 2 Point Deductions

Was Bill involved at any time during the FFP financial reporting and submission process? Surely he wasn't of sound mind and we could use that in our mitigation. His head swole up the size of a Halloween pumpkin so obviously that will have impacted his ability to cognitively function properly.

My god I’ve just loled at this, caught me off guard
 
Everton Board Meetings of days gone by;

Kenwright; "Oh look, Farhad, there are no points sanctions for breaking P&S rules. Get the cheque book and credit cards out and give Uncle Uzzy the nod."
Moshiri; "Will do, Billy Blue, I'm on it. What a wizard wheeze."
Finance Director; "I've just had a call from the PL to say we've got to do the same as everyone else (except City and Chelsea) and abide by P&S rules."
Kenwright; "Nonsense! We are Everton. Everyone follows what we do. They wouldn't know what to do if it wasn't for us. Crack on, Moshy!"
Moshiri; "Will do, Billy Blue"
(we also start planning/building/paying for a stadium, COVID arrives, etc)
Finance Director; "Here's a copy of an email I've had from the PL. They're going to charge us."
Kenwright; "So what! What can they do to us? We're Everton! Mosh, even though our last Scandanavian hasn't work out too well and we can't stand the French we should throw our hat in the ring for Haaland and Mbappe." (Moshiri gives a little shriek, claps hands and jumps up and down, excitedly)
Finance Director; "The email goes on to say they're going to introduce a points deduction for these charges."
Moshiri; "What are points? How much are they?"
Kenwright to Finance Director; "WHAAAAT!? This is your fault!"
Moshiri; "Yeaaah, stupid."
Kenwright; "We'll tell the PL and everyone that we'll "work with" (start listening) to them but it will all blow over, we'll still do what we want eventually and don't forget to remind the fans we're Everton."
The Rest of the Board; "We're leaving."
Kenwright; "No you're not, YOU'RE SACKED! Tell 'em, Mosh!" (Moshiri gives a little shriek, claps hands and jumps up and down, excitedly)
Moshiri; "You're so masterful. Do you mean me, too, Billy Blue?"
Kenwright; "No, you plank! You're not on the board but there might be a job going soon (Moshiri gives a little shriek, claps hands and jumps up and down, excitedly)

The rest is history...

I currently don't have anyone on ignore, I can deal with people having a different opinion than me, but @gwladysnight is getting close, I am now 100% certain that this individual is on a wind up and I ask @GrandOldTeam to punt this obvious kopite from the forum, he has dismissed everything that is in Everton's favor and when copying articles to post here cherry picks what's copied just to have a go at Everton.
EDIT just had a look at his posts there is only this thread and the fireworks thread that he's mainly commented on, comments on match threads including our 4 game winning run are basically non existent .. very strange Everton fan this one...

I've been writing on various boards about football, international & domestic politics, ice-hockey... In various languages for over 30 years. This guy is the 2nd one who got the ignore-treatment from me.

Spitty proper deflected the jist of the committee meeting and had a go at the chair for her dig and line about “you don’t know what you’re doing!”on x.

He may have said supportive stuff in the past but he was miles off yesterday, and has potentially been muzzled by sly sports.

Shame he wasn’t similarly muzzled when grocking over that young girl from his car.

To be fair, the line at the end was very pre planned and was a definite sound bite. Not saying it’s not true but it was clearly set up.

Having listened live, I thought the small club thing was essentially repeating what the panel member said in their question? Not defending his general demeanour and the rest of the things he said, but that clip is badly out of context. It was prompted, and he stupidly repeated it

It was but in his position he should've dismissed that kind of language used about the shareholders of the company he's representing immediately. If that guy doesn't have an alternative motives, he would've done it.

The piece i find really unsettling, angry and frustrating about all this is the low locus of control - regardless of how anything goes on the pitch we wont know the outcome or impact on our team until April and then May.

Between now and then - there is no competitive sport for us, even then there wont be a sporting outcome - our outcome will be decided by men in suits.

They've taken our football team away from us - they've taken the jeopardy out of our games.

The only thing left for us - is to support regardless through the toughest times and show absolute defiance.
 

Would we go into adminstration if he we were 'put in the championship'?

It's impossible to take the Premier League seriously as a sporting competition anymore.

I'm just curious what would happen in the lower leagues.

The panel member mentioned “really big clubs”. Didn’t call any clubs small. Certainly not 2 of the most honoured clubs in English football.
