Why do I see endless waves of everton fans say they haven’t broke any rules, and everything will be turned over through appeal?

Has any one seen the latest athletic article?

Everton football club are really in trouble here, and I believe all 3 teams looking for a court case will win. That is another possible 9 point deduction.

Also, all this talk of a hostile goodison on the weekend, for what gain?

Second question would be, why does everyone now relate this to Man City? Since when have Man City ever been comparable to any other team in the prem?

Fairness is something we can all agree on, but it’s not the way it works.

Does anyone else think Everton are safe, even with another 9 point deduction, because I do. But I digress, why do Everton fans feel they have done nothing wrong?

    Stadiums weren’t exempt from FFP, but then they were made to be exempt a little while ago (not sure how long, I’ll look for a source.) This is why Everton’s £300m loss was reduced to £20m, that accounts for a lot of the stadium costs.

    You’re right, Everton couldn’t sue him until he was found guilty, which he wasn’t. The Premier League, in their infinite wisdom, decided that we should have used him anyway to make up the lost wages. Not a lot we can do about that one.

      Iirc the stadium / infrastructure was excempt. The problem was that they took the loan out before they got planning permission, which then meant it couldn’t be put into this category, however stupid that is.
