You could be right. To be fair I'm not 100% sure how the appeal process works legally.
To be fair again, the Premier League obviously don't know how all this is meant to work so I would say virtually anything is possible (apart from the top 6 being handicapped in any way).

As far as I know the season runs from August to May, but if you want to talk about an arbitrary run of games, how about the twelve immediately before those three months? 
In those three months we had an 8-1-3 record, twenty-five points, nearly 2.1 ppg which over the season (to date) would put a team staying at that level on seventy-three points, above Liverpool.
Five games since the bad spell? Twelve points at 2.4 ppg, that over thirty-five games would put a team on eighty-four, strong title favourites.
The whole season thus far, again leaving out the thirteen game run (but including the crap start)...12-2-8, just over 1.7 ppg giving a very respectable total of sixty points with three to play (we qualified for the CL with 61), and an almost certain European place.
None of all that is particularly relevant of course, because the season takes thirty-eight games, but it's all just as relevant as the winless streak some can't make a post without referencing. 
If you want to be down in the dumps about a third of a season then fair enough, go for it, but following the same logic we should be dancing in the streets about the other two thirds
And we're not, because we're being realistic.

Sean Dyche has done a superb job with a toxic club, with no no one at the helm, and lumps of concrete thrown at him every 5 mins, points deduction. no money to spend, non existent board room, all taking a big pay off, and making the club more venerable. Also a bunch of players who have thrown no end of managers under the bus, he stood strong.
Well done Sean, it might not have always been pretty or easy on the eye, that will come with time and a few better players.
But a big thanks from me for the job you have done, at 70 years old they have not been relegated in my lifetime, long may it last.   

Detraining is the partial or complete loss of training-induced adaptations, in response to an insufficient training stimulus. Detraining characteristics may be different depending on the duration of training cessation or insufficient training. 
Short term cardiorespiratory detraining is characterised in highly trained athletes by a rapid decline in maximal oxygen uptake (VO2max) and blood volume. Exercise heart rate increases insufficiently to counterbalance the decreased stroke volume, and maximal cardiac output is thus reduced. Ventilatory efficiency and endurance performance are also impaired.
These changes are more moderate in recently trained individuals. From a metabolic viewpoint, short term inactivity implies an increased reliance on carbohydrate metabolism during exercise, as shown by a higher exercise respiratory exchange ratio, and lowered lipase activity, GLUT-4 content, glycogen level and lactate threshold. At the muscle level, capillary density and oxidative enzyme activities are reduced. Training-induced changes in fibre cross-sectional area are reversed, but strength performance declines are limited.
Hormonal changes include a reduced insulin sensitivity, a possible increase in testosterone and growth hormone levels in strength athletes, and a reversal of short term training-induced adaptations in fluid-electrolyte regulating hormones.
I thought everyone knew that🙄

i see, so a bit more to it than just making you shit at passing.

investment wise the club has done itself a massive favour this week.
most importantly we have stayed in the Premiership, we have now navigated PSR and hopefully the worst of that is behind us.
the team and fans where amazing in the derby - if other buys have stated to look at us this week in a bit more detail, then they truly witness the passion of the Everton faithful. That can't have done us any harm.
we can only hope.

How is the ability of the international footballers to pass a ball on Dyche? Unless you think he's actively coaching them to be shit passers?
You don't want him here, you've made that clear in pretty much every thread since December, don't remember much prior to that. Meanwhile, I think he's progressed us quite a bit, despite the turmoil around the club, and think he deserves a crack with better players. You haven't managed to convince me until now that there is a better solution, I don't see anything has changed except we won our first home Derby in 14 years, have kept 11 clean sheets, have the 4th best defensive record in the league and should be sitting on a minimum of 41 points. Comparing that versus the last 2 seasons with pretty much the same squad, arguably weaker, and all the noise, that's impressive. Far from good enough, but a massive positive trend. 
Realistically speaking there's 2 options for next season in my eyes:
1) PSR/FFP will continue to screw us over meaning the squad isn't going to be improved upon and, whilst it's mostly ugly, Dyche has got us progressing in the right direction during these very challenging circumstances. So why change? 
2) We're somehow allowed to buy players but still have to be careful with spending, probably more bargain shopping as most sales profits will go to the books. Would you want a new manager in for that? Potentially and with good reasons. People (moreso than players I imagine) could say Dyche can't attract the players we want, let alone could potentially afford. But then who? I accept that we're still attractive with our history and the new stadium, but who takes us further than the last day relegation escapes to a midtable seaonal performance with less options and more pressure? I don't think we'd see this squad go on to a top 8 squad with anyone else, but who knows. Personally I don't think it's a gamble we need to take next season. I think, harsh as it is, that he gets 1 more season and if he doesn't improve further then we've a new manager for the new stadium. That's probably the best we can hope for with all things considered. 

Is that real? Are we pretty much safe, 8 points clear, with 4 games to go? Did we just send Klopp off with the best goodbye? Did we keep a clean sheet against them and not get fucked by VAR?
I really don't know what to make of all that, I need to go lie down...

Enjoy that one lads!
I’ve got to add, today is the 8 year anniversary of my mother’s passing & I’m just a ball of emotion right now. It’s always a bitter sweet day but for the lads to pull of that win is just incredible.
I can’t even describe how I feel but this club just means so much.

Like everything else, tastes like chicken

Great Result, still think our football was far from good, but I'll take any points right now.
I'd be angry if I was Forest on the penalties. The 1st one I think is 50/50. The 2nd could easily of been given handball and 3rd was a pen for me. Tbf we've had similar penalty shouts this season and not got them. 
How Ashley Young wasn't taken off is completely beyond me as was his even starting the match.
We just have to get to the end if this season still in the PL and reset. 
With a few high wages off the books in the summer we have a good chance to properly rebuild.

Dyche needs to make a couple of changes instead of waiting for them to score before he considers doing so. 

God damn it, just get Young out.

One thing that Dyche has done really well, which was rife before he came, was to cut out all the errors leading to goals.  Which is one of the reasons why it staggers me on why he lets Young still play.

Jesus Christ Young as RB wtf will Dyche never learn, surely ffs Garner would have been the best fit option available. 
Armchair pundit on the rant😂

Queue the weird Twitter Evertonians who will go into meltdown over this. I'm just happy to see that he's clearly on the road to recovery from what is a very traumatic set of experiences.
fIt eNoUgH fOr tHe tV bUt nOt uS!!! 

Anfield surely isn't that bad?
Looks like it's been modelled on staple punches but not so bad you'd turn it into that.

Wow! I thought they just got a pair of Dice out, rolled them and went with result and then laughed and slapped themselves on the back about what a great deliberation they had as they no doubt got a big cheque for their work as well!

Exactly this, let’s now channel our anger into coming together and galvanising our strengths to beat the drop and stick to fingers up to the PL, as the saying goes don’t get angry get even, let the higher hierarchy of the club fight an appeal, let the team and fans fight to win every point available to us before the end of the season.

Such as running, passing and shooting 😂😂
