Everton feel like sacrificial lambs – this punishment is excessive and wrong

If Everton lied about amounts they were spending and 'cooking the books', I would feel differently. But they have been the opposite of this

    Contrary to a lot of other opinions here, I actually think this is to set the precedent for when they eventually punish City.

    Think of this way: it will be a lot harder for city to contest relegation if this the precedent set with Everton.

      If the max punishment is 12, where do they go from there? Can city and Chelsea be stripped of titles or relegated?

      If not, and it’s just fines, then surely the precedent set is meaningless.
