Welcome to Barcelonaton FC
Doesn't alter the fact that you can't point at something that's ballooned in cost as a positive example of fiscal responsibility. And stadium costs were not part of the decision to deduct points regardless.
It was based on day to day irresponsible running of the clubs finances. If an alcoholic commits a crime while drunk the alcoholism may be a mitigating factor but it's not an excuse to avoid prosecution and punishment. Perhaps Everton's points deductions took into account mitigating factors and could have been higher.
It doesn't. But that was never my point. 17 points is though.
No one ever said we shouldn't have been punished or defended what we've done.
But they wanted to give us almost double what you'd get for administration.
But I get you feel the punishment fit our crime
