This 10 points will heap the pressure on us. We need the appeal to reduce the points to relieve the pressure and get us back up the table

Where was this unity earlier in the year after those shameful antics towards supporters. Seeing those numbers today competed to what I experienced earlier in the year was a big difference. There is still a major reluctance to look within here.

Yes, but can you see us being 4 points adrift of Luton getting near to Easter and the 'independent' commission putting Everton back in with a shout?
Not a chance.
If we do get points back we'll get them if we're out of the relegation zone by a few points to make it less 'controversial'.

They wont be in a rush, they have to drag it out and drag out the 777 due dilligence. They arent going to do us any favours. The Andy Burnham government angle is solid, we should be pushing that.
Stick a jobby in it too, sod the postal charges
It’s not going to be near Easter though?

Would probably go down off the paper cut and chase the postman demanding the card be yellow

When will it be?
I'm not confident though. Not when the appeal is organised by the PL itself.
I fear that getting nothing will fracture our player's confidence even further.
By all accounts I’ve seen January is when we’ll know the appeal result.
I’m totally calm and confident we will get the points back and our punishment will be altered.

Just on that point above about an appeal failing:
IMO it'll fall flat on its face.
Is there an argument for the club to not appeal and avoid hope being handed to us from that which players might lean on too hard and not get the points we require on the pitch?
And as said above: what effect would the double whammy of the decision + appeal rejection have on us?

I think it will have to be confirmed either way in the next couple of months. The later it gets, the more unhappy the other teams would be if we get some/all of the points back.

I hope you're right Mike. Personally, I see it as a long shot. I;ll be amazed if get anything reduced.
I believe there's a certainty to the PL and their flunky commissions and appeal panels and they want us to struggle all season and preferably get relegated.
They want our head on a pike staff as proof they get tough.
If we can get this case to a court of law we win. If we cant then we're getting precisely f.a. from this appeal.

This. It would cause uproar if it dragged on into the last few months of the season. Teams around us would be on edge just as much as us.
I'm hopeful but not extremely confident
