Burnley Case

[Simo]

We need to learn to stop been nice and take shots at anyone and everyone, and stop moving along as though it does not matter

On the field you mean yeah, tell Moyes (and Ndiaye)

I expect one of Burnley’s statements was concerning all the people in and around the club that had to be laid off following relegation. Be interesting to see how much of the compensation feeds down to support those people.

It really is not worth bothering, the amount of time, money, effort and emotion that people put into this sport and this club.

Hilarious. This club exists for no other reason than comedy value and charitable works for 3rd parties.

 

[MikeyMike]

Just give them Dibling

It will only be an abuse of process if they actually commenced legal proceedings ( ie issues a writ ) and then discontinued the proceedings.

If they decided not to issue then , subject to limitation, they would be free to commence an action.

you can't drop a claim unless the claim has been commenced which would suggest that they had commenced legal proceedings

Honestly lost for words just to say chelsea got fined 10 mill for breaking thr rules. Points deductions caused us to drop two places lower in the league costing us more money and now paying out 40 mill. Honestly is pathetic

Our Super Silk should be draughting the lawsuit up for Chelsea as we speak.

Put the City ones on the back burner too.

As I said the floodgates are well and truly open. Every time they have broke the rules it has cost every other club money.

Na
We'll just appeal it , get the cost down.
Say thank you and go quietly in the night.

Completely agree.

Directly attacking the Prem.

Said this for years. Even before the first point deduction.

The closest we got to it was the club referencing looking closely at how other cases will be handled.

We then followed it up by thanking the Premier League.

It's never boring with this club

 

[Daytripper]

K’n hell I give up

What are the odds measures are put in place after this to stop this kind of thing being a regular occurrence , Man City for example

 

[Ruairi77]

Whoever's representing us needs [Poor language removed] off asap.

this, the PL decided what the punishment was and when it would be served, not EFC
how in gods name did Everton lose this.

 

[diggerdestroyer]

I look at Everton as being soft and an easy pushover. Yes please of course we and take that point deduction. Yes please we will pay burnley the fee.

Richard masters who brought, lead and won the case in the point deduction got a vip invite to last game at goodison ffs. Soft, weak, loser mentality. City and chelsea will laugh at us again.

What an utter farce presided over by a Kangaroo Court. It wouldn't surprise me to find out that so called independent panel were involved again.

We have been deducted points twice, had one appeal heard and now been sued by another team but one other club are still waiting for their judgement after having a hearing last year. What are Masters and the Premier League doing typing it up with Windows 95?

The integrity of the competition is at an all time low. Fed up of us being the easy pushover. We need to throw everything we can at the appeal and then Burnley can do one and have a few years done in League 1.

 

[RomanReigns]

can't wait to read the judgment to see how they reached this conclusion though

 

[HalfTimeSayers]

It’s only a matter of time before Everton Twitter blames Myko for this.

This is the cherry on the cake of the absolute abomination of what the PL did to us. I expect us to appeal but there’s limited chance we’ll win, the damage is done.

We’ve been whalloped time and again by a kangaroo court designed to show the PL is tough on breaches….yet in plain sight is allowing teams to gain actual sporting advantage and pay people through offshore accounts with a slap on the wrist

Let’s not forget the PL rule book says teams cannot sue each other. Yet the “independent” commission opened the floodgates with this by saying there was a case for compensation.

Has this got anything to do with the PL?

They brought charges against us, all the rest has been done to courts and independant commisions
