Everton Thread - 2023/24

[Frank the Yank]

It’s simple. The penalty must be conditional.

If Everton lose against Liverpool- minus 10.

If Everton draw against Liverpool- all is forgiven.

If Everton defeat Liverpool- a 6 point bonus!

In effect, I see no other way of interpreting it.

Maybe only teams playing in red are allowed in the Premier League

“Now do Everton again. Two points this time.”

What’s the Ukraine war got to do with owt?

I just thought that when they read the statement

We had to cut all ties with Usmanov and USM sponsorship which cost us ££. Plus we had a stadium naming rights deal lined up too which got shelved, as the deal wasnt in writing it didnt count.

The PL and first commission said we basivally should have planned for a potential war apparently. This IC disagreed.

After the break, we'll be back with the thrilling conclusion of this years premier league title race. Catch it only here, and live, on Sky Courtroom.

Nobody wants this. Offences aside, what a crappy and unfair way of handling rule breaking. Are they using a tombola to decide the points reductions?

Regardless of who did what, who cheated, who took a punt and lost, who has a billion in debt swept under a carpet in the Cayman Islands, isn't football about the excitement of the match, the hope, the skill? Nowadays it's being decided by some plum in a TV studio with the attention span of a sparrow fart, and seemingly Krusty the clown's accountants.

We're seriously in danger of being able to say "I remember in my day, the league was done on the final day, and nobody could even appeal to be reinstated to the premier league 5 months after they'd been relegated!"

This person is an MP the mind boggles.

Don't think she's mp as dantfind on tindr

Anyone claiming the PL dont want us to go down dont realise they have asked the commission for a total of 17 points too be took off us (12pts 1st breach and 5pts 2nd breach).

This commission disagrees with the previous one about the claims we should have planned for the Russian invasion. Also says the accusations by the PL in the first hearing are unwarranted, overstated or both

You won't get relegated.

They'll be a legal shit show for the PL if you did.

I didn't know that the bookies had paid out on Russia winning.

Don't know why but made me think of this.

He thinks it's all over: bookie pays out on Manchester United title win

The Manchester United-supporting owner of Betfred has tempted fate by paying out on his side retaining the title

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.

Should have got no more deduction. Fuck them! Appeal it and let it drag on and on.
