6 + 2 Point Deductions

Oh wow, so, the league created a secret sanction policy for Everton 5 months after they referred them to the commission... didnt tell Everton about it, then told the commission this was their sanction policy. But it only applies to Everton, so they dont need to do any for Man City or Chelsea etc. The commission then punished them EXACTLY on that policy. Thats an absolute bombshell and thats a way to appeal. From the Athletic Article at Athletic-Everton Appeal:

"The commission heard how, on August 10 this year, five months after Everton’s case had been referred, league officials put forward what was described in the report as a “sanction policy”...

According to evidence supplied by its chief executive Richard Masters, the league proposed “a fixed starting point of a deduction of six points, with an increase from that starting point of one point for every £5million...

Crucially, they still reached the same conclusion as the league: a 10-point penalty for an overspend of £19.5million, with their adjudication summarised in the final two pages of the report. None of this is likely to have been lost on Everton’s lawyers...

The Athletic has since been told the aforementioned sanction framework was only meant to be used for Everton’s case. It is understood no such league-wide sanction policy is in the pipeline at the moment and that such a change would need to be communicated to clubs formally and via the handbook. Everton were unaware of the league’s recommendation both at the time of their referral and approaching the pre-trial review in early October."

Masters must now be relieved of his duties, it was a fit up from start to finish. One thing is certain the Premier League can no longer be trusted to regulate itself, Masters and Co have seen to that.

The media, PGMOL, PL, FA all in the same cesspit of greed and corruption. What type of sport do we have now where cameras can’t cover the fans or broadcast fan noise for fear of what might be shown or said. How embarrassing for top flight football.

Sky/PL afraid of offensive chants on Sunday?

How about "Corrupt, and you know you are" and "Premier League, your so corrupt" for starters? (no offensive language there).

Any other suggestions?

The planned chants with f… in it just gives them reasoning to do this. Was a dumb idea
