6 + 2 Point Deductions

[pfim]

I don't think it's been that long tbh.
They've got to give club time to prepare, prob 48 hrs.
It's big decision and they could be accused of it being cosmetic, if it was few days.
Think it'll definitely be this week.
But don't think we'll get many/if any points back.
It's easier for PL to have tear up with one club, than 19.
Hope I'm wrong.

The PL is in trouble regardless of the outcome.

It's not just about Everton, if the penalty stays, the precedent is set and Forest are in trouble, and frankly players and agents are in trouble as well.

If the penalty is rescinded or reduced, everyone will be at their throats.

They blew it last fall with this process. They have nowhere to hide now.

How so Kind Sir?

You really need to change your username to 'Kind Sir'.

The news will be bad for some regardless. Luton would be livid if we got ten back.

They’d have no right to be.
We’ve fairly accumulated more points than them this season.

It’s us who should be livid.

This is some mad reaching. Creative though, I like it.

Something in it la..it's all about controlling narrative with them.

The 3 man panel are obviously deadlocked
Bound to happen when you appoint good cop, bad cop and procrastinator cop

Sorry...probably comes across as tiresome sometimes but its a nice thing to call someone I think.

A general comment of mid February has been taken to mean absolutely the 14th feb. No more, no less. And as a result you’ve all lost your tiny minds

For all our guesswork nobody can know whether Moshiri sinks the whole thing again by saying something to the panel like we had to spend because we had a non existent midfield...

Well he’s already said it. He can’t unsay it. Super silk would have to be better than Bob Massingberg to get round that one.

Is esk on the panel...?

Didn't know that.

I like to believe that it would take more time if the nature of the punishment change’s from points to something else because then you have to completely rethink what is appropriate.

lo

I'm not saying it's a definite, clearly.

What I'm saying is the Premier League will time the release to their benefit.

As they did first time around.

You do know the 10 point penalty was known days before they released it on that Friday don't you? They delayed the announcement - for their own reasons.

Anyone who has ever worked in any PR capacity will tell you Friday afternoon is when your release news you want mitigating.

My own opinion and gut feeling is we'll hear this week if it's good news (all points back or most points back). If it's bad news (IMO, less than half), it'll be after Tuesday next week - most likely Friday.

it’s about us tho not the PL why would it benefit them?

it’s dlong the opposite keeping us waiting

just hurry up and give us them back so we’re out the bottom 3 before the games

 

[matty1878]

Everton are blue
Roses they are red
When this appeal result is announced
Let's see what happens @matty1878's head.

love it

it’s GOT to be GOOD they can’t shaft us again not this time around

It's gonna happen... Especially when like me, you didn't get a valentine's day card from the missus.

Need to vent. Or get passionate about something.

My fury is dependent on how the evening unfolds.

As with Everton... it's the waiting/ hoping that kills you.

You're right.
But it's about damage limitation now.
The path of least resistance is to stick with original decision.
Or give us back minimal points.
Why upset 19 clubs, when you can upset 1?
Regardless of rights/wrongs of process.
