    Zero troll whatsoever, but I’m glad the PL is docking points. Now with that said, I think Everton fucked up far less than most and it was trying to work with the EPL on the investigation.

    City and Chelsea are going to need a new hole torn if this is as rough as it’s been on Everton.

    Any other season and I’d be absolutely certain that this points deduction would send Everton down but this season’s promoted teams are some of the worst in recent memories and it’s going to take an absolute miracle for anybody other than them to make the drop.

    At least Everton are not so bad this season and this should not be fatal. But fucking hell if that’s their punishment, then the gruesome bluesome should be relegated out the Football League.

    Honestly better to get the deduction now than later in the season. Imagine being safe from relegation then receiving 10 points deduction and immediately going into danger zone with not many games left.

    This is actually mad. City has 115 charges, Everton has 1. Yeah they broke spending rules, but fuck me, this is awful. Chelsea did similar with transfers but got a 2 window ban?

    I actually feel bad for Everton, so many top sides, City, Chelsea, Barca maybe even RM have all had dodgy finances or in Barca’s case, even evidence to suggest paying refs, yet 0 sanctions except a fine that’s a drop in the bucket. One rule for them, another for everyone else I guess.

    Best season for them to get it, even the Everton of the last 2 years would likely survive a 10 point deduction with Luton, Sheff United and Burnley in the league.

    I don’t understand why Everton can’t buy a few players when Chelsea spends 8 figures on any soccer player with two legs
