6 + 2 Point Deductions

[polish]

What's worse, there are propably many Football League hyenas waiting for us down there. Bet they cant wait to tost us as well.

Said it as soon as Mr super lawyer was appointed. Was way bigger than our appeal. Club has known since the last judgement at least. We need to burn the whole house down to survive. Thats why he is here.

It does explain his appointment and Dyche saying he didn’t know. How can the club not know? They have known this was coming, hence us hiring that lawyer.

Id love to see what these 2022/23 figures come in at, because IF true, this would be double deducting in the same season for MULTIPLE seasons of breaches, a clear corrupt attempt to get us relegated when the first one failed......and double jeopardy. How can they punish a club for overspending on 2021, and then punish them AGAIN for overspending in 2021. We were charged for the 19/20, 20/21, 21/22 accounts. Now this would allegedly be the 20/21, 21/22, and 22/23 accounts, of which 22/23 would be the lowest spending of all.

Everton are second lowest spenders in the league over the past 5 years, second only to Brighton. Not the last year. Not the last 2 years. Not the last 3 years. The last 5. Villa have a 330+ million higher net spend than us over that time. Bournemouth 250+ million.

Getting hounded to our grave for not being sustainable enough.

They surely understand the ridiculousness of this? The profitability and sustainability rules where because Everton couldn't be sustainable they smashed them to pieces.

this has made me
feel physically sick

Well at least the new owners haven't got a working record of poor financial actions and sanctions at their clubs ...

 

[EFC_FRANCIS]

A shame the worlds greatest evertonian didn't live to see his magnum opus. The club would've been in ruin if not for him after all

@ForeverBlue92 why
is funny? enlighten me

You have little faith in super silk Matty. He'll sort us out and if he can't due to the sheer corruption and incompetence on show - then you should have no worry of relegation as the whole things scripted nonsense and we're better off out of it.

Also, you know the PL will wait until the end of January to decide on the 777 deal, simply to make sure we cant get any players in during the window. Guaranteeing they will get run by the government now.

We're done for if/when this happens. If the further deductions don't happen this year (and we stay up) I fear next year will be harder given the teams likely to be promoted. We will also need to sell again to try and balance the books. So Branthwaite will be gone and god knows who else.

 

[matty1878]

You have to laugh at the prems timeline of having a hearing, sentencing and appeal hearing mapped out for completion in 5 months. Our last one is still ongoing from 12 months ago with no sign of ending.

and city and chelsea are laughing

My main takeaway from it all is how do we have such bad accountants ?

Buffoons

We signed up to the rolling 3 year assessments. As did all clubs. In theory it gives you the chance to have 2 frugal years then splurge. Or if you have an unforeseen bad year, you can tighten belts for a couple of years to get back on track. The problem arises when you are run like a urine soaked circus for 7 years straight.

they’re just basically kicking us out

Here's to hoping the word 'expecting' is just clickbait. However I don't take Ornstein as that type of journalist, not sure if you lot do.
