Everton Thread - 2023/24

Because they're likely to appeal. It's messy enough as it is, but imagine if they get relegated by a point. The 2 points is likely to be reduced to 1 on appeal. The other team thinking they're safe and find out after the season has finished that they're actually relegated. Needs finalising before the start of next season as two sides can't start the season without knowing which division they're in.

If I were Luton I'd be instructing the lawyers now. It makes no sense what they've done. The rules are the rules and the punishment should be the same. Can't have this oh we've already docked you points before so we can't dock you points again bullshit. It's a completely different accounting period, multiple rules broken again therefore it has to be the same punishment

2 points is a joke. They can get to fuck. Appeal and drag it on, make the Prem League name muck.

Rawk have taken it well, and, of course, they go on about City.

You got out of it pretty well. The PL is terrified their punishments will send you guys down. They should be thinking that, if you don't go down, the relegated clubs will be asking why the two punishments weren't comparable. And a two point reduction in the sanction because you have been punished once this season? Remarkable.

Just the incentive Everton needed to nick a point off Livarpewl

What a season to win Premier league with all this controversy

 

[Don Karleone]

Haha, I would love to see the reasoning for 2 points.

They have absolutely, unequivocally fucked this right up. Its a total shambles. No one knows whats going on. Its so arbitrary.

I'm trying to work out their defence about Alisher Usmanov having to take his money out because the PL could see the Ukraine war coming.

Firstly, do the PL have a Chrystal ball?

Secondly, I thought he withdrew because he still had shares in Arsenal and ownership of two pl clubs was illegal?
Happy to be corrected on either.

Can't see them going down anyway

The bottom 4 are dog dirt, so it'll be 3 of them 4. Prefer to see Luton stay up, at least they've had a go in games.

 

[Gareth Barry Conlon]

That's numberwang.

Realistically it is the same as conceding a late equalising goal in a game which you were winning.

But but but what about City? When are those cheating bastards being dealt with?

When Coventry beat us at Wembley to really piss you off.
