Financial Fair Play investigation

[Dixieslaces]

He was there, of course, the last time we did anything of note... looking supremely not arsed.

Barry Horne giving him the eyes!

Oy knobhead, we just won a cup here and you are looking at a box! Where's the respect Charlie Boy

 

[helpimonfire]

Have they given our points to the RS yet?

 

[Tel001]

This! When will we know?

Another 48 hours

 

[Yarrgh]

So King Charlie will protect us from a points deduction then, directly affecting our fans and community!

God bless his sausage fingers!

 

[Dixieslaces]

God bless his sausage fingers!

Mrs Charles Agrees!!!!

 

[lieneverton]

Is there a realistic timeline in terms of next steps then? Or just an indefinite investigation which may take weeks, months or years?

 

[Blue Willy]

Its like death row.

 

[MIKE85]

Still no news?

Dragging on like an Everton medical

Let's hope Spurs swoops in and steal our points deduction.

Did Brucie make it up the steps after helpfully pinging his hammy in the first half?

I think there is no precedent so they can't make a rule up and punish us now.

I'd would go with a suspended sentence of a threat of 3/6 point deduction with a fine and/or transfer ban

Isn't it worse that there is no precedent?

We're setting the precedent - so they basically have to make something up.

What happened if you break a rule that isn't a rule tho?

You can argue that you never knew this was a rule so the league's argument just goes away?

We set the precedent and we take a suspended sentence then every clubs knows they can't do that

One thing I find disturbing is how nearly everyone posting here seems to have accepted we're guilty and that we will be punished, which all seems to stem from the ridiculous report that the premier league are pushing for a 12 point deduction which was completely wide of the mark of premier league pushing for a penalty of upto 12 points. I personally think (admittedly from my limited knowledge of the actual charge) that we are in a much more solid position given the history of having our books open at all times with the premier league throughout the period the charge relates to. I'm going for zero points deduction premier league to pay all our costs and pay us £25m in fines for dragging our good name through the mud.

I could live with this. Then every Everton supporter should sue the Prem for putting us through this mental torture……I’m thinking £25k each…..
