It's a tough one because I can fully see them changing the rules to suit their favourite teams that means even if teams broke many more even more important rules and gained huge amounts of sporting advantage, they'll still get a lesser punishment than we did.
If I was confident that they wouldn't change the rules, I'd happily see us withdraw the appeal and have our case and outcome be the precedent by which all other cases are handled. Yes - incredibly harsh for us, but also going forward for every single team and the likes of City and Chelsea 100% kicked off of the league. And 5 and 10 point deductions becoming the norm for several teams every season.
But there's no chance of that.
I just hope they don't add anything like a transfer ban onto us and give us back a few points that essentially count for nothing, as all is this year's hard work will be completely undone and we would be relegated next year if we lost Harrison and cannot add to the squad. It will have ended up some kind of 5-fold punishment that ran from 2021 to 2024.
Make no mistake, the Premier League will be looking at all of the above and deciding how it leaves them with regards to punishing City and Chelsea, which is absolutely not what they ought to be doing when this case is solely about Everton.
Corrupt to the core.
