They're seen as a big club, so I'd be very surprised if it happened. (Unless it still leaves them safe from relegation of course)

 

[Nick]

Will just give them a fine, surely?

 

[Terry Gibson's perm]

Should be taken off immediately as it could break them I would love to see them relegated bunch of cheats.

Everton is a nearly club. Some success periodically. But so nearly relegated. We finally got over the line of course.

They should have gone down against Wimbledon

They usually bottle it though when giving out point deductions in the premier League.

How many have there been?

Last time was Portsmouth in 2009/10 I think

The two teams who received PL points deductions as Everton 'threat' reported

Middlesbrough and Portsmouth are the only other top-flight clubs to face points deduction in the Premier League era

Apparently -12 might be happening

As they are such a big club, don't you think they will just appeal and it will be reduced to 6 or something, with the rest suspended unless they were to err again.

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

I’ve seen that circulating, originates from a wind up account

 

[Saddlebrains]

Mental if they get a deduction yet Man City get away scot free

Man City’s case is different and will take longer to investigate. If 24 points were taken off them they would still stay up without having a relegation fight.

 

[Terry Gibson's perm]

Man City have far deeper pockets than Everton and will fight it in court for years if needed. They should also stop Everton getting any parachute payments if they come down so it’s not just a stroll in the park for promotion.

 

[SBT]

Well everyone on here got this one wrong then!

What's the outcome?

 

[SkyBlueSoul]

10-point deduction, puts them 19th

 

[Sick Boy]

I expect it’ll be reduced still.

 

[David O'Day]

surprised this happened, upset that luton are now 4th from bottom

 

[Tommo1993]

Think they’re just about good enough to drag themselves out. Mainly because that original bottom 3 is piss poor.

 

[SkyBlueSoul]

Yeah I think they'll be fine, they're just starting to not look shit. 1 defeat in 5 and that was away at Liverpool.

 

[no_loyalty]

Will the other teams who have broken FFP rules also face a points deduction? Of course they won’t.

 

[The watchmaker]

I think this is correct in terms of survival this season but it could cost them a lot of money. Burnley, Leicester and Leeds are lining up legal cases and the first 2 at least are likely to succeed.

Talking to some legal colleagues there also is a line of thought that if Burnley were relegated because of Everton cheating and given Burnley walked the league last season you could make an argument that there are implications for the 3rd promotion spot last season. Seems tenuous but follow that one through if you will.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Man City should be banned from English football if Everton are getting 10 points taken off

Getting ready for our promotion party

I’d rather see Everton and Sheffield in our league, Burnley can stay up of course.

aye, but i'd rather not see luton stay up

call me petty but fuck em

No club should get away with this - look at what happened to us - they need to take it on the chin

Can see why Doug King took over now. 4D chess material.
