I'd like a big flag next home game just saying "Premier League is corrupt".

Factor in momentum lost + morale blow + likely injuries to DCL and we would be teetering on the edge...at best.
Surely momentum and morale among players come from performances and results on the pitch. They can dock points in some back room somewhere but they can’t erase our recent performances or results from having happened.
 

Dave honestly...am not one for vaulting but you could probably pull about 15 posts up where you've said we'd not get a deduction of points.

I thought this lady was not for turning ha
I know. And I still hold that view.

You can state what someone else says that we will get points deducted and the scenario we'd face if it happened without deserting your own position that no points will be deducted (or at least won't be if it's suspended).

I'm not trying to put the wind up people. Ilm merely repeating what Jordan stated.

Yes, but these players are only human. They know the crap we''ve been in for two previous seasons and they'll have been looking forward to having a stress free end to the season. A points deduction puts them right back under the cosh.

It''ll have an impact on them. No question IMO.

The @davek is not for turning...to coin a phrase!

Is that clip of what exactly he said anywhere. sometimes what is put on here, is not always word for word what was said,etc
 

I hope you're right. There was a lot of certainty in his response to Danny Murphy saying to him fines would be how all these transgressions by Everton, Chelsea and City would be dealt with. A firm 'No" on the question of Everton and then "points deductions".

The decision will be known now and I bet he and a lot of others know too...see McNultys piece saying he'd bet against us still surviving even with a points deduction...another dead giveaway.

People are being briefed and Ild say we're no more than 48 hours away from this being announced.
This Piece @davek ?

"Asked if he believes Everton will be safe even if docked 12 points, McNulty told BBC Sport‘s live blog [13 November, 11:13]: “First things first – Everton deny these charges and have defended their case robustly.

“I will make a bold claim here and one that probably condemns Everton to almost certain doom. Everton will still stay up even if they have 12 points taken off them. There. I’ve said it.”

Don’t tempt fate"

I prefer the Davek of last year who spread positivity about our relegation battle than this doom-monger Nostradamus character you've begun to reprise.
 
Even if there is a points deduction,
There's no way Everton don't appeal it.
It's not like this independent board announce a points deduction and it happens immediately.
I'd imagine it'd be a lengthy appeals process with clubs like City probably weighing in behind the scenes.

Usmanov, Abramovic, Mansur, the saudis... Christ, maybe it is the best league in the world but it's murky as all hell.
