My god, you love digging that hole.But politely mate, you have just defeated your own argument.
There are a multitude of arguments that could be made, in addition to the one you have outlined. We could argue the commission is not independent. That the PL members are acting with a conflict of interest. That the findings are not consistent with other offences etc.
I'm not saying any of this could happen. I'm merely pointing out the possibility exists.
If you're too close minded to see it, that's on you I'm afraid.
This is the same organisation, that has let another side breach over 100 rules, for over a decade, without a single punishment. They need to be seen to show that a punishment for us breaking 1 rule is proportionate to that.
How could we argue that the commission isn't independent?
The Premier League appoints a panel of professionals who are used in disciplinary cases. Those professionals are vetted by all of the clubs before they are appointed. We had ample opportunity to state those individuals had question marks over their independence.
