6 + 2 Point Deductions

[JimmyToffee]

This judgement along with the FFP rules in general will all be thrown out in a court of law - they flagrantly breach anti-competition laws. Wouldn’t be getting worried about it

 

[TGW89]

Surely this much be a much more minor breech than last year?
As such the punishment should be much more lenient. Maybe just a fine.
UNLESS we get an even worse punishment because it’s a second offence

Is there anything written in their arbitrary rules that two-time losers get slapped harder? Sure they'll decide tomorrow over a tea break.

 

[Charro]

This can't possibly be the case. We've been babysat by the PL for years now and somehow, possibly, have breached the rules twice. We were run by an ACCOUNTANT and this is still happening.

We were ran by a money launderer, not an accountant.

 

[Runub]

Thank God we got a point today

 

[matty1878]

He was literally just making the point that they're not going to go "Oh, don't deduct Everton points, their fans find it disagreeable."

he laughed mate that’s enough

 

[ToffeeTim]

And the fact it is all leaking in the media AGAIN is a complete joke and totally unprofessional.

 

[formerly manx toffee]

We were ran by a money launderer, not an accountant.

Same thing in some circumstances

 

[TheFinnFan]

Complete bs, what was the point of even cooperating with the PL all these years. Should've just spent anyway if we were going to get massive punishment regardless. PL is bent and the club is naive.

if they slap us another penalty im done with footy. I will distance my emotions from it.

 

[Tony’s Carp]

Also....the 10 points will stick. They'll use it to cover the 2 breaches IMO.

Yeah, entirely possible they give us 5 back on appeal then reapply for the second breach. Or they suspend the initial punishment but then trigger it for the second.

They must surely see that -20 points for failing to hit fairly arbitrary accountancy targets is ludicrous.

Points deductions on any scale should be for serious fraud, corruption, fan rioting, stuff on a serious criminal scale. Not this crap.

@davyduck
Any word from your sister mate

 

[wainy]

The rules are a joke but, ultimately, it’s the clowns who run the club who are to blame. If we’ve breached again it’s utterly laughable and just proves (yet again) what a disgrace we are off the pitch. But bill is a blue though and he had our best interest at heart and that

 

[MichaelEFC96]

We should have purposefully had 115 charges against us so we can kick the can down the road like City are doing until the rules are thrown out the window which is what will seemingly happen.

 

[joey_macmo]

Entirely possible. 10 points cover both. Forest get 4-5 points.

I’d take that scenario right now 100%

 

[b-rad]

A second points deduction could then be followed by another for administration. Let’s go for the record!

So get the ten back this season and then start next season on -6 you say?
