Initial 10, then reduced to 6 + 2 Point Deductions

Man City could potentially be satisfied with that, a nice little fine..

It’s obvious the Premier League couldn’t care less about any corruption accusations from supporters, it’s just laughable noise to them as the money keeps flowing in for them and all the clubs.

Besides, if it is true, where are the “journalists” exposing it.

Just completely bin FFP, let owners spend what they want but put a "grass roots" tax (10%?) on all transfer fees above a certain value, eg 10 million.
Set up an organisation that manages investment in grass roots football and then all the revenue from the tax goes to them. Pay for pitches, floodlights, kit, training coaches, referees etc.

….can’t help thinking they got who they wanted to get, now it’s about not getting who they don’t want to get.

Undoubtedly dodgy.

So basically we can all just spend what we want now and negotiate ourselves a cheeky little fine if we breach the rules? Cool, fine with that. Get that chequebook out Dan.

WT actual F.

Absolute farce.

PL is quickly becoming not fit for purpose.

I presume this would be the end of FFP as clubs will just spend freely and factor in the cost of settling.

So they punish Everton - then change the rules

Let’s be very clear about what this is. Everton were dragged before an independent commission, hit with a points deduction, and made to feel like the villains of English football – all for overspending by a margin that wouldn’t register as a rounding error at Manchester City or Chelsea. And now...

You'd be hard pushed to find an Everton fan who didn't say this would happen.

I hope Andy Burnham gets in and orders a full investigation into the PL cronies.

 

[ToffeeTim]

Not even slightly surprising

We all knew they would find a way. I don't think there is a more corrupt football league (and referee association) on the Planet and Everton have been on the receiving end of both for too long now. When is enough enough I wonder.

Always interesting to look at who potentially is at risk from the existing rules and what relationship they have with the leadership of the Premier League.

Back in the day, i used to laugh at the corruption that was rife in some of the leagues abroad. Oh, what a naive fool!

 

[Armaghtoffee]

So blatant.

Perhaps Burnham will make this his pet project as PM.

 

[Jacko93]

Isn't this effectively just putting onto paper exactly the process that Chelsea went through anyway?
