Millions watch MNF.
Millions more around the world watching the only Prem televised game on Monday.
Do the Prem want that entire audience being told their product is corrupt?
There's no way on god's earth we'd hear tomorrow or Friday that we get 0 points back, when it could be announced next week.
Of course they did. Basic mitigation stuff.
Well that's what I'm saying.
Sky snidely implied they were avoiding Goodison for their own safety a few months back.
We already protest the PL every single game, what more is there to fear beyong further boos and demonstrations?
I think you're reading a bit too much into things mate. The simplest and most obvious explanation for it not being announced is that it's not been completed.In my opinion, it's bad news if it's not announced this week.
If not this week, it'll be because it's deferred to get beyond Monday's MNF audience.
At last, some rational analysis.I think you're reading a bit too much into things mate. The simplest and most obvious explanation for it not being announced is that it's not been completed.
It's honestly not been a very long time for the work they need to do. It was a three day hearing during which we will have been able to raise a lot of arguments against the original verdict, some simple (it's disproportionate), some technical. Now they need to go through them all, consider them, and reach a consensus (if possible) between them, then reach a consensus on what their overall verdict is and what adjustments they are making to the original sanction. Then they need to produce a full, reasoned verdict like we got last time.
Today is the 8th working day since the hearing ended and it honestly isn't a lot of time for all that to get done.
It isn't a bad thing if it takes time either: these are our arguments and we want them to take time to consider them all properly, and the more they are agreeing with us and amending the original verdict presumably the more they need to put into their reasoned verdict. Dismissing our arguments out of hand would be the quickest thing, but the worst outcome. IMO it is in no way cause for alarm if the verdict takes a while.

If I'm the Premier League and I can decide when the outcome of the appeal is made public - if I think it'll attract criticism, I release it at an opportune time that limits publicity around that criticism and that's not in the days before Everton are televised on a Monday night. Millions will be watching and the appeal outcome will be the biggest punditry/story of that game.
Baffled that anyone would think the Premier League wouldn't be arsed about coverage.
As I said, even soft arse twigged it;

I've said a few times I think it'll be released on a Friday afternoon too. That's intentional. Just like the original release was.
But without the club it wouldn't exist ?? Without the Stadium it wouldn't exist as it is ? And the Stadium is being used to punish us by all accounts.A good as that video is, EITC is an entirely separate entity from Everton FC, their finances being completely independant.
Will post in the club media thread

Granted, they'll take their time and plan for impact (big or small for that matter)I was saying it'll likely be a points deduction in November mate and the reasons why when your friends on Twitter were telling everyone it wasn't anything to be concerned about.
Without any doubt whatsoever the Premier League will carefully plan the release of the appeal outcome - including the timing. They did first time around, and they'll do so again now.
In my opinion, if it was good news it would come this week.
