6 + 2 Point Deductions

[HalfTimeSayers]

I read the prem wanted 8 for Forest

Which is reasonable IF the PL had accepted that they couldn’t go as high as 9 (administration), and couldn’t go as low as 6, because Forests breach was nearly double ours, and had knowledge and complete deliberate intent to breach. They were saying in broad daylight Forest should get more point than Everton, and were paying attention to the precedent set by our appeal.

The PL’s system is a mess, but in this case it’s this IC that has chosen to apply the rules with flagrant disregard to our 2 hearings.

it’s sure plausible

It's more than plausible - it happened. John Whittaker and the Peel Group made serious enquiries, and Kenwright said no thank you.

it’s ok we will beat you and get our 3 back

I agree. Relegation is Forest v Luton. Don’t think you’re in serious danger. Not sure we’ll win another match TBH.

For a short period of time, we were galvanised by our deduction, so you might be surprised.

Who knows what the league will do with our next hearing. Everton are far from safe.

The league are making it up as they go along, with no regard for consistency.

Seems to be a double standard here. But, putting that to one side, I sympathise with Forest.

1. Why can't they spend and give it a good go of becoming an established prem team?

2. Why like us should they sell off their best assets for a cut fee to bloody Tottenham?

The whole thing is a complete farce. At the very beginning I was expecting a fine or at the very most a 3 point deduction. 3 points alone can result in millions lost and relegation. It just defeats the object of the rules to relegate teams for breaking a rule that's meant to keep teams afloat. It's bonkers.

I think you’ll be alright.

ha ha i’m messing mate

Everton v Forest at goodison should be a protest against the PL by both clubs

Forget tribalism. All football fans should be angry at the way this has been handled, and the fact that points won on a football pitch aren't the only thing that decide relegation anymore.

It won't happen. Especially not after the embarassing cheating chants at Forest in December, but it should happen. It's bigger than Everton or Forest.

i’d rather get 3 pts!

 

[Tin-Tin]

All this proves this Silk fella is an absolute fraud.... did nothing.

Maybe we should have got him in from the beginning instead of Paul and Barry Chuckle.

 

[maccavennie]

The only thing I'm surprised about is that they haven't confirmed Danny Murphy was on the IC panel for Forest.

They have some tough games and some games they should be looking to get points, bit similar to ourselves, we beat them at goodison and I think they will struggle to finish above us
