    If these clubs prevail over Everton then City will also be on the hook for paying compensation to whoever came second in the Premier League when they won it and whoever missed out on a CL place when they finished top four.

    Everton have a net spend of zero for the past four window and a net spend for last 5 years of 3rd lowest in premier league. The PL admit Everton had no sporting advantage as it was stadium costs, there is litteraly no case to sue.

    Makes no sense given its been stated that we gained no sporting advantage. What would their grounds to sue us be?

    It would be a bit rich of Leicester to complain given that they got fined for the same thing when they got promoted to the Premier League

      I used to watch sky sports news a lot, and when I’m work (van driver all day) try to keep in touch via talk sport. Jesus Christ, just like deleting Facebook, I felt so much better after choosing to remove rumours and controversy fishing from my life. There isn’t a single host/guest/presenter on sky sports who isn’t a childish sound bite conman

        Watch some of the transfer news videos.

        ‘Arsenal are heavily monitoring the Declan Rice deal’.

        ‘Sky sources tell me that a bid has not been submitted’

        ‘All indications point to the fact that rice would be interested to play for Arsenal’

        So at the end of 5 minutes, he doesn’t actually say anything worthwhile.

          To be fair to him when you work for a 24 hour sports news channel that devotes 80% of its runtime to one sport, and are actually committed to giving reliable information then your job will inevitably consist of saying a lot of nothing.

    The investigation ruled that everton got no sporting advantage from their over spending on stadium. So no case to be had. Even stranger actually that they have been handed a sporting punishment after they said this

    This Everton ruling is opening up a can of worms, a kettle of fish, a Pandora’s box of possibilities that the EPL is gonna hate to deal with.

    Hey, we should sue them too. If we didn’t lose away to Everton in the 21/22 season and instead won, we would have finished in the UCL places. We missed out on that sweet UCL money and so Everton should pay us.

      This is genuinely what clubs can build cases on and will build cases on if city or Chelsea are also punished (as if) every single dropped point or loss of one league position can be scrutinised by every club in the league

      The rules were clear and they were broken, manage ffp correctly and don’t break it. It sends the message to other clubs not to break the rules. And before you say City and Chelsea, I absolutely hope they face punishment too.

          It wasn’t a miscal, at this level that isn’t an acceptable defense, at this level you have the resources to make sure that doesn’t happen. It was a deliberate attempt to circumvent the rules or it was incompetence. Now we know the penalty and I welcome it.

          Either way it will get appealed and probably reduced to 4 or 7 points. And frankly if this punishment was always going to happen then it couldn’t come at a better time. Everton will likely survive this season even with the deduction.

          Now every club is aware that this behavior doesn’t fly. But if we get to the point in 3 or 4 years where City and Chelsea faced no punishment though I absolutely will change my mind on that.

            The point is 10 pts is egregious. Over 19.5 in a stadium cost. It will probably come down to 3-6 in the end. But 10 for one charge is nuts

    And this is how the league eats itself.

    Good job everyone. Watch it all burn because your team kind if sucks.
