    I guess we have to hope then that we are at least 4 points and goal difference better than them when the final game is played

    i think the points totals we normally think of dont really count this season, because I normally target 40 points, but I think survival will be a lot lower than that this year. A combination of the points deductions for us and forest and the promoted teams not spending and the bottom half of the...

    Points Deduction, Appeal & 2nd PSR Charge

    The 4 points for Forest is daft. I’m trying to work out how the premier league will justify this compared to our 6 points. I haven’t seen anything on that yet. It will be even more galling if they get their 4 points reduced on appeal and if we get a 2nd points deduction. I have a horrible...

    Would you like Graham Potter in to replace Dyche?

    I would say no to Potter. Mainly for 2 reasons. Number one is that we have ping ponged between different footballing styles for a number of years, leaving us with a Frankenstein's monster of a squad that really isnt set up to play the current manager's way, but its slightly better than it was...

    The Financial Landscape of English Football

    I think rather than the current PSR. each club should be allowed to spend the same amount as eachother on playing staff, regardless of income. Similar to NFL. So lets say each club can spend £300m per season, made up of wages and transfer fees. Spending on stadium, training ground, non playing...

    Points Deduction, Appeal & 2nd PSR Charge

    Is this the guy who was on with Jim White this morning? Stefan Borson? some of the stuff he said made sense, but because there is no framework, I think he is just guessing. He may be using financial logic to do it, but he is still guessing. Its going to go to a panel again and they will decide...

    Are you a still a football fan or solely an Evertonian these days?

    Other than Everton I watch other Premier league games, if they are on the TV and try and work out what result is best for Everton and then root for the appropriate result. It just makes the game more interesting for me. I always enjoy the World Cups and Euros as well. I quite like the mid week...

    I think it could happen to clubs outside the "sky 6". I could see Newcastle and Wolves getting hit with this. Newcastle have been careful with their spending, but their owners created a company to sponsor them at £25m a season when they were getting £6.8m a season before from a betting company...

    At the start of the season I normally target 10 wins and 10 draws to get to 40 points and safety, anything after that is a bonus. currently on 8 wins and 7 draws, but with the 6 point deduction its like we are on 6 wins. so target 4 more wins and 3 draws to get to 40 points. The only issue is...

    Points Deduction, Appeal & 2nd PSR Charge

    Getting 4 points back, not the best result, but not the worst. still concerned about the next hearing for the 2nd charge. The only saving grace I can see is that if we are docked 3 points say in the next charge that forest will get the same amount of points deducted and would stay beneath us in...

    Match Thread Everton v Crystal Palace - Team Prediction, Waffle, Match Report & MotM Poll

    Horrible football this. Most frustrating thing is watching DCL, running the channels, trying to run on to his own flick ons and picking up the ball deep in our half. He needs to stay around the box, no further wide than the width of the posts. Too many times we get the ball in the box and he’s...

    Discussion & help on depression & mental health related issues

    I think a lot of what I do in my spare time, feels more like killing time and then all my problems are still there, rather than me really having fun. I sometimes feel better after I exercise, so I am trying to do that 3 times a week, where I can fit it in. My wife talked to me about changing my...

    Discussion & help on depression & mental health related issues

    I have had some very dark thoughts recently. Not sure what is really driving it. Feel overwhelmed at work, fairly often. I know I'm not great at communicating with my boss and its difficult because we are in different countries. I don't always speak up when I have too much work to deal with and...

    I think, unless we get the 10 points back we are going to be relying on 3 teams being worse than us. maybe Forrest getting a point reduction as well, that could save us.

    Luton are so bad, proper league one level, and they have beaten us twice at home this season. We really lack quality and calmness in the box.

    Points Deduction, Appeal & 2nd PSR Charge

    I dont think its a matter of "guilt" there are no clear guidelines for what is appropriate punishment. That is the ultimate issue here. if you look at the EFL, there are clear guidelines on the punishment if a club breaches the financial rules, everyone operating inside the EFL knows what they...

    Points Deduction, Appeal & 2nd PSR Charge

    It’s another way for the established champions league clubs to further pull up the ladder. In tbe end it will affect our league massively and make it less competitive.

    Depends if we had replacements lined up and would be able to spend the money. I think there is a sell on clause in his contract so we wouldn’t get all of it anyway

    We were very bad going forward, probably had 3 chances in the game Martinez is a very good keeper, but we should have scored one of them. We take the point and move on.

    Been awful so far. Alan Smith is awful in commentary, doesn’t know the changes in the rules past about 1994. Can’t believe there was the level of discussion about the offside goal. The idea that you could wrestle a defending player to the ground, entirely off the ball and then say, he’s playing...
