If we were relegated I think the will deduct points - no prem team has ever had a points' deduction .......With 3 games to go I don't think they could give Everton a points deduction.
Can you imagine if we appealed and won the appeal but in the meantime we got relegated and Everton then claimed it psychologically affected the players when the points deduction was given
It would be far too messy imo so I think it's something that will need to be done end of the season.
