6 + 2 Point Deductions

[Runub]

I really hope that the Luton fans find some way to cope with the uncertainty over the next few days. Bless them.

Hopefully they they will also be pondering another defeat as well

Does anyone know what impact the Forest charge has on our appeal and how it complicates the points deduction?

If you don’t know maybe thoughts on how the PL intend to deal with it. I’m probably being a bit thick and haven’t worked it out for myself yet.

Will be different they will try argue about the years in championship, also will try what we did with rich but will loose that for johnson. Can see them having alot more trouble than us we have had alot of points sig, the war ect that could have been given.

Everton are again in the bottom three, can they beat the drop once more?

All I know is

We were building a stadium

We have worked hand in hand with the Premier League for years

Interest charges for stadium costs were allowed and then suddenly not allowed after which we had taken on the debt already. After we were told it would be ok

We have had one of the lowest net spends in last 3 years

Ukraine war shot up all costs of construction a crazy amount

We had to sell year on year our best players

We had our most valuable player commit an offense, which is very rare and had to basically write off the asset

We have had steady improvement in all our accounts year on year and have acted more sustainably while trying to fend off relegation three years running.


And for forest? Well they spent a ludicrous ton of money in one window

I think youll find he was never charged with any OFFENCE

Is that just speculation or based on something?

they won’t say NO

to much about being a joke

the points will return

dunno how many my guess 6

 

[matty1878]

Some awful news heading your way mate… his cadaver holding up a 7 is probably a step too far even for this sorry lot in charge

7 would be great

He's right, and sadly also wrong. The people that actually make football are the fans, yet a system has been created where TV money and sponsors hold the power.

If you use Arsenal as an example, who are one of the biggest earners from match day revenue in the PL, only take 22% of their revenue is from that stream.

Double that and you're looking at the TV revenue alone, before you add 36% generated through commercial deals, which linked to the TV revenue too,

The executives aren't bothered about match going fans or those who've followed the club for years; they want the ones who'll buy Sky Sports and all the kits.

There's some weird and twisted observations here just the last page or 2. If you're thinking about Luton and Nottingham Forest then you're not thinking about Everton. Our problems, our concern.
Stay focused on us.

Another mitigation. It was the PL who banned him from playing for us yet he came out as innocent. So if we had sued him then surely he would have sued us back

I guess you're not an Everton fan then if you're bogged down in your obsession with Luton. Your post doesn't add up.

Oh Matty don't get your hopes up

mate it’s not about that it’s about it’s the right thing

it’s in the public eye
it’s a joke
it’s harsh
it’s not on

we aren’t guna get told “no”

it’s to much of a joke of punishment

Chicken and egg though mate, if there isn’t the crowd, then there isn’t the sponsors or TV.

I think it’s a good point. If football looses its ability to identify with the masses and becomes to elite and people switch off the market plummets.

Take the NFL, the lowest priced ticket for the Superbowel I saw was 10k and you’d binoculars to see the game, I don’t think football tolerates that and if it does it will loose huge swaths of the market.

Every year that passes football becomes competitive and less Romantic, I love football, but bar pure obsession with Everton it’s hard work.

OK, are you gonna reveal your 'source'?

Or be honest and tell us it what was a guess

Either answer is fine

I've got family at two NW football clubs, best friend is a NW journalist and I am friends with several NW football personalities.
