Decisions been made to keep a relegation battle alive. All about keeping the product competitive which you see every week with VAR decisions.

The league is an absolute disgrace and is starting to become more like WWE than football.

 

[Saint Domingo]

Can’t wait for Neville and Carragher to protest this because it’s unfair on the fans for a club to be punished….

 

[GrandOldSte117]

Anything to be said for a protest?

 

[Bedfordblue]

The worst thing about this is it's confirmation we have cheated. we were caught breaking the rules set to fix the league for preferred teams.

Dyche will rack up the points in no time, there should be no concern about staying up - I think we will be out of the relegation zone within 2 games personally.

Longer term our reputation has been shattered unaffected, as outside of our fan base we’re not considered much of anything by most.

I don't think anyone thought otherwise - the numbers never stacked up. Reputation usually sticks to the old owners, so when we are taken over then reputationally it probably won't last. Just be put down to corrupt Russians

What a joke!

Well I started this thread last year…

Russia / Everton

Erm. Okay. Moshiri is the owner of Everton FC. Moshiri is also the chairman and shareholder of USM, a huge Russian company. Usmanov is the owner. Moshiri is also the chairman of Metallo invest, a Russian mining company. Usmanov is the major shareholder. Usmanov is Putin’s mate. Are we in...

I think like others have said, this is the Russia thing…

City are owned by a friendly country to the UK government, so are Chelsea, and so are Newcastle.

Everton are “owned” by a man who’s well deep in with Russia.

Also, the people who work at the premier league no doubt also like football or they wouldn’t work there, do you think there’s enough everton fans who work at the premier league to stand up for us? I really doubt.

Just my opinion lads. I know sod all for sure.

You can only have so many strings on a puppet.

That Moshiri isn't the one giving the statement is crass.

 

[atrottel]

Does this mean Burnley, Leeds etc will be firing up their legal teams too?

Within 28 days of receipt of a copy of the decision, each applicant club must inform the Commission whether it wishes to pursue a claim for W.51.5 compensation.

Referring to the application from Leeds, Forest, Southampton, Burnley and Leicester. Apparently they tried to become part of the complaint and the KC ruled that they may be eligible for compensation in the event we were found to have breached the rules.

 

[SunKing]

This Muppet and the rest of the ones we sacked for the board need to be putting out resignations and apologies to fans. This didn't happen ina vacuum, people either knew or were paid enough that they should have known and headed this off.

If this had happened last year I would have taken threats against the safety seriously because they've absolutely destroyed us.

Colin Chong?! haha, he had nothing to do with all this.

 

[PhilEFC]

Out of his depth.

Why mate? He’s been left holding the baby. He wasn’t involved in the bollocks that the board overseen.

Behave, we are the perfect club to punish, no media presence or global image that will harm the prem product as they stuff us to prevent outside regulation, just big enough to send the right (or corrupt) message

i’m talking about a spirit mate

the FA and ever other f will want us to go down and bend over

we aren’t

This - was always my fear - we’re ideal for this - not part of the cartel but probably the biggest (or one of) the remaining sides - nice little example to make to ensure everyone else plays within these bent rules.

I think you'll find he's signing "I DIDN'T SIGN UP FOR THIS. SEND HELP."
