6 + 2 Point Deductions

[Jamiednm]

1. What’s all this ‘agenda’ stuff? Why would the Premier League want Everton relegated? Do people who peddle this rubbish truly think corruption and collusion of this type is happening? For what reason? Who would gain out of it, and in what way would it be worth actual imprisonment of key people involved + the global scandal that would engulf the Premier League, damaging it beyond repair (thrown out of Europe, litigation at every level etc)?

2. Everton won’t be on the hook for more investigations, because that would look absolutely ridiculous in the media. Everyone in the game has said how ludicrous the 10 point deduction was, how could the PL possibly reconcile that with the prospect of outright ridicule and immediate clamour and justification for the independent oversight that the PL is so scared of?

When were we initially charged the first time? Is everyone absolutely sure a pts deduction would apply to this year?

Spin the wheel of PL justice, see where it lands.

Get half knocked off what we already have, then get 5 more. Simples.

Another 10 point deduction and its game over,the club will be ruined after this

a
crime

Forest already hinted last week there has been some difficulties interpreting accounting rules for promotion bonuses (aww bless them). Couple that with the idea that they sold Johnson for huge profit AFTER the close of the accounting period rather than selling quick and cheap within the period (knowing this would trigger a technical breach but with a mitigation), we know what their defence will be. And because none of it involves sanctioned individuals I’m sure it’s all perfectly acceptable and they will be awarded the golden calculator.

Do we know what our wages to turnover is now? We’ve done nothing but slash top earners the past few years so it can’t be anywhere near what it was.

Last set of accounts it was 88% and the year before it was 95%

We need to see the latest set of numbers but hopefully below 80% now

I'd be interested in understanding if we can take the club or someone to court via a class action.

As a season ticketer I'm supposed to see a match where the result matters.

 

[Lapeno77]

If we get another 10 points off, we're down.

At that point I would be quite happy to see the club throw every game and bring the league into disrepute.

How many players need to be sent off before a match is abandoned?

Put it in our own net.

Take the players out of the equation and follow Reading's example, pitch invasions. Especially the Derby.

What did you have mate?

All quiet on here.

Stake

How are we paying for Beto in the next financial year? It's madness

i dunno anything except we’re gone and my head is

Surely Everton must know already what news is coming tomorrow.
Everton know what was in the financial report they've submitted and they know the rules.
I'm assuming they're not allowed to make a public statement in advance of the Premier league making their announcement tomorrow.

Over the last few weeks the media reports seem to be fairly 50:50 on whether we've breeched the rules again so I've no idea what to expect. I just hope the news comes early tomorrow so I don't have to keep hitting refresh all day to find out.

I should hope so. Seeing Dele, Gomes and Holgate off would be helpful too if we can.

 

[Brennan]

Anybody know what the double points deduction trophy looks like ?

Profit & sustainability, brought in to keep clubs sustainable unless they’re building a new stadium to help them make profit & keep them sustainable..

If they do that, put it down as a loss
