Everton Deducted 10 Points for Breaking FFP

Everton receive immediate 10-point deduction

Everton receive an immediate 10-point deduction after being found to have breached the Premier League's Financial Fair Play rules.

Given that we have already launched legal action against Everton regarding our relegation last season, this will likely be a big story for us.

Obvious conclusion is that we wouldn't have been relegated last season had they not have broken the rules.

Lovely stuff, **** these ****s. I hope they go down and never get back up.

This is the best season they could get this. There's enough shit in the division this year and they're slightly better than they have been over the last couple of years. I still think they'll stay up.

Having said that, they'll probably appeal and it'll be reduced or removed anyway.

They won't go down this season, the bottom three are so bad even a shit Everton team will survive easily with a points deduction.
This should have been done last season when it would have made a difference.

I'm surprised by this - not because I don't think Everton didn't break FFP, but because it's going to be very hard for Manchester City not to be punished with this precedent.

I also think it's really lax, I think there needs to be zero tolerance for this and further down the pyramid clubs get relegated or denied promotion for far smaller affairs. We deserved to be relegated last season, but Everton did too (and the season before), and since Dyche seems to be getting a bit of a tune out of them they might survive this season yet - that's not justice, but that's down to how slowly the EPL has dealt with this as they should have relegated at the end of the season(s) they offended. Real reform would be forcing clubs to be far more open with the authorities about their finances in real time, but that will only happen if the EPL recognise their own failings and well...

In short, we, Leeds and Burnley shouldn't be sueing Everton, we should be sueing the EPL

Dyche is going to be insufferable.

 

[FOX Franks]

This could take off now. Obviously any relegated club is now going to be sueing Everton you'd imagine.

 

[KLFox]

Burnley did the year before.

I look forward to watching Man City at Prudhoe Town next season....

They are only 2 points from safety. They’ll easily stay up.

I wonder how much they will offer is in damages to avoid litigation. We’ll do you a deal on the amount of you pay up now. Could be handy in January.

They are going to need a motivational WAV.

And we are apparently a ‘small club’:-

Leeds, Leicester and the other small clubs.

Are we about to be taken to court by them?

The last time they won anything, the Dead Sea was only sick

What a joke, 10 points now will barely be a punishment to them. They'll probably finish 16th rather than 13th/14th.

Why have these been punished before Man City?

Why have these been punished before Man City?

Here you are - I have drawn a complex diagram giving you some detail about this;

 

[Graz]

Why have these been punished before Man City?

Everton have only got 1 FFP charge against them. Man City have got 115 charges against them.

It's probably quicker to deal with 1 than it is 115.

But I look forward to Man City's 1,150 point deduction in the 2134/35 season.

My thoughts exactly. There’s so many shit teams in that league this season that the deduction wouldn’t even put them bottom of the table and they’d be less than 3 points from safety.

And I’d be shocked as all hell of they didn’t appeal and get the point deduction at least reduced.

Burnley? Did Burnley go down then?

Whoever, I honestly don't see the rationale for three clubs to sue them; they would have taken *one* relegation place and therefore only *one* club was disadvantaged by their misdemeanours.

 

[bocadillo]

Dyche is going to be insufferable.

So what changes?
