Amazing how they can manage to get through Everton and Forest so quickly, yet are stalling on Man City. Everton agreed to comply and discuss the charges , Man City denied any wrong doing which has been dragging it on according to Talksport. Also far more complex a case apparently

Also far more complex a case apparently Man City's cases are far more complex and numerous yes. Also, they have some of the world's most skillful lawyers. Man city are probably spending in the region of 100,000 dollars a day on them preparing the defence. This is why it's taking so long. The Premier League have to ensure their case is water tight. And that might not be enough.

They've taken a look at the league table and shit the bed again haven't they?
If Luton were further back then the points penalty I reckon would have been larger leaving them more room to wiggle on appeal. Wouldn't be surprised if it gets reduced to a single point if Luton stay in touching distance especially as Everton have a bit of a dodgy run in.
Whole thing is corrupt to the core.

The Premier League requested a 5 point deduction but were granted 2.
They requested a 12 point deduction for their first charge, so requested a total of -17 across both cases.
Given their proximity to the relegation zone, you'd imagine they'll appeal.

Should be now a 20 points penalty. It's wrong what's going on, "the keep Everton in the league" makes you sick. And NO fucking appeals.

If you appeal & lose then the points deduction should be doubled no question. Accept it or risk double jeopardy Regardless of points & money restraints, Everton have been absolute shite for the last couple of seasons (Pre season game against us & they were dreadful then!) and the fear is if they go down, they would stay down. On the other hand if they do stay up wont it be back too square one again next season with points deductions hanging over them for further loses in 23/24?

You'd imagine, so it's probably best if they suck the mop now. I'm tired of these conniving teams sneaking out of punishment all the time. Meanwhile back in the Potteries were adhering to the rules. It's getting very annoying. I just don't think there should be an appeal. If there's a point deduction, then that's because the rules were broken. How on Earth can a reduction be made?! I really don't know. You broke the rules, it's 10 points, end of argument.

I think they have become loathsome club who appear to have a shed load of trophies which they have bought outside of exisitng financial frameworks- and one of them was ours

It’s a farce, and they are lucky to have received the deductions this season where as little as 34 points will likely see them safe. Everton vs Forest could be decisive, and especially the game away at Luton, their other fixtures are tough with Chelsea, Liverpool and Arsenal still to play. I’d like to see Luton survive as they have been great to watch, but if they can’t scrape a points tally in the low 30s they can have no complaints.

How to punish a “big” club Work out how many points they need to stay up then just punish them with enough deduction to ensure they do
Does anybody believe if this had been Brentford or Burnley the punishment would have seen them down
The whole things an absolute farce

Everton had Burnley on Saturday and still have Luton, Brentford, Forest and Sheff Utd to play. They should be fine and if they can’t get enough points from those fixtures deserve all they get….

Genuine question:
Why was Everton’s point deduction for the second cycle (2 points) significantly less than the breach for the first cycle (10 points reduced down to 6).
Surely it should be more? How is it you can break the rules two cycles on the trot and the punishment significantly decreases?

They argued thr first deduction covered two of the three seasons that that second deduction is based on, which the PSR ruling has no legislation on (unlike the EFL). I think that was taken into consideration. Nevertheless, the whole thing is a farce. Every aspect of it from the written rules, the judgements, the pannels through to the appeals. Utter horse shit that serves no purpose what so ever.

Whatever the right and wrongs of these points penalties we can't carry on like this.
A way has to be found to prevent these financial indiscretions before they occur.
It's not fair on fans of the affected clubs and actually its not fair on Stoke City either. We may get Everton ceremonially dumped in our division next season and likely taking up a precious promotion place when they have a team which was far too good to go have down to the Championship in normal circumstances.
