Initial 10, then reduced to 6 + 2 Point Deductions

[HalfTimeSayers]

As a result of that ruling the 3 relegated clubs that season will sue us !

Given the P&S assessment covers 3 years (or 4 due to Covid), it’s impossible to know which seasons relegation teams were actually affected.

Super league was fine though.

The worst thing about this is it's confirmation we have cheated.

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.

I disagree - the perverse thing about this investigation is that it refers to the time when we weren't throwing money about like drunken sailors.

As even the investigation notes, over four years we have been within PSR because we have over the past three seasons cut spending and lived within our means for once.

I always feared the we were the ideal scapegoat for the Premier League to use as 'a lesson to all'. Not on of the favoured six (guaranteed money generators), not one of the 'established' London clubs (think West Ham/Tevez) but a big enough name to show 'that they mean business'. We all know that money corrupts and the Premier League is basically a licence to print money for the rich.
Corrupt!

 

[maccavennie]

I'd rather we just make a statement and publicly tell the PL to fcuk off and refuse to play any further matches, absolutely screw up the season due to some games already being played.

If we go under, let's take the whole corrupt system down with us.

10pts for 1 breach ffs don't make me laugh.

Can't be arsed with any of it anymore because all we are doing is constantly swimming against the tide. I'd rather be removed from the absolute shytshow and just end it all now.

Shut up , Softlad . We’re staying up

WHO ARE WE

Looks like Dave has done another 180.

 

[davies1878]

Lol Chelsea lost a million pound a week during the Russians reign despite all the money/champs league income .

Well i can only ascertain that this means man city will be playing marine and Prescott cables then once they get their punishment.

 

[Jacko93]

Yeah think the document makes us sound very unprofessional, and guilty.

That being said the justification given for ten points makes it sound like the figure was invented out of thin air

My biggest worry with the whole thing is that they have laid out there, very clearly, that this decision sets no precedent and any punishment, or none-punishment is dependant entirely on the panel that is put together for that specific charge. That feels like a predetermined get-out-clause for all following cases.

The way that they have worded it also seems to suggest that it is not acceptable for clubs to expect to be anywhere beyond where these 'specialists' see them as being, and Everton should not have had the gall to aim for 6th place.

We'll be OK anyway, and as some have said this is probably the season you'd want it to land.

Nice to see Everton sticking up for themselves as well, and we will indeed watch with great interest for the outcome of other clubs over the next 12 months.

Given the P&S assessment covers 3 years (or 4 due to Covid), it’s impossible to know which seasons relegation teams were actually affected.

The clubs are Leeds, Leicester and Burnley they went down we stayed up.

 

[longers]

Screw all this self pity, our idiot owners screwed up and now we pay price.

I’ll get salty if other clubs get away with similar

 

[Bohemian Toffee]

No chance of an appeal being successful.

Well, we're not appealing our guilt, we will appeal the severity of the punishment. I don't know who hears the appeal, but as no clause exists for the points deduction being increased it's something of a free hit.

Sound mate - our reputation has been in the toilet since kenwright and moshiri started the circus.

Every single club is at it as well, or much worse than us, your deluded if you think otherwise.

 

[Chewbacca]

Right, us against the world Sean, us against the entire corrupt shitshow.

 

[Taifi gorm]

When shock inevitably turns to anger here things could get very ugly indeed

Not just with Everton fans. Fans of all clubs will kick off at dodgy bar decisions etc

 

[Rooney_Tunes]

10 , not 6. So , no... you are not

I was told 6; and it would be announced today...

It was announced today, and 4 points more than what I was told...
