Leicester City, Burnley, Southampton, Leeds United and Nottingham Forest are all considering taking action after Everton were handed a 10-point deduction for breaching the Premier League's financial rules.
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.

Not sure how a 19.5m miscal correlates to -10 pts but ya

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
