Financial Fair Play investigation

[GrandOldTeam]

What an absolute mess.

It's almost like we're ran by people who don't know their arse from their elbow.

The one thing this news will do, is ready half a dozen other clubs in and around the relegation spots speaking with their lawyers and contingency planning, developing strategies and trying to build in what Burnley and Leeds did last year. whether there is a case to answer or not, this really couldn’t have come at a worse time.

Nah. That ship has sailed.

It's one season that's being investigated: 2020/21. If Everton are punished over that then they wont be hearing any other cases.

Not allowed to say that, it’s the underground cabal of satanic kopites that secretly run the world conspiring against Everton.

WHERE'S THE PRIME DOC

 

[Zatara]

Saw a quote from a sky sports presenter

-- Will take months and months before there is a result.

-- Club could appeal that result and then an appeal would also take months and months

So looks like this will roll into next season.

Points deductions never happen in the Premier league. You'll get a transfer embargo and a sizeable fine at the very worst

Our real problem is what this dos for the morale of our manager and players for the rest of THIS season.

We need full focus on this relegation campaign not distractions over players' futures.

Very odd one this as, according to the Times, PL have had our audited accounts since March 1st (due to be made public on 31st) which apparently show substantial reductions in losses due to sale of Richarlison etc AND we are allowed to offset infrastructure costs (ie BMD) and the suspension of USM sponsorship due to the Russian invasion should also figure.

If anything this will make negligible difference to our losses as we lost £372m over 3 years while we still had USM sponsoring us.

If our record signing is found innocent do we get a fair play bonus for not playing him unlike Thomas Partey?

SHOW US THE ACCOUNTS YOU COWBOYS

 

[JLW]

This will turn in to nothing more than a Wet Fart

Wet farts can sometimes be catastrophic

 

[EFC_FRANCIS]

I don't think a transfer ban would hurt us anywhere near as much as a point deduction. Can't see us getting a fine as how do you punish a team for making extraordinary losses by making them pay even more

 

[EFC_FRANCIS]

SHOW US THE ACCOUNTS YOU COWBOYS

Theyre quite clearly rotten and much worse than they've briefed they are otherwise they wouldn't be waiting til the literal last second to publish

I thought it was 21-22 that was being investigated

Needs to create an us vs them mentally

If we're in trouble for incurring huge losses ,it seems bizarre to hit the club with a massive fine ,thus adding to our losses .
