So nothing happens because we appeal? Just keep appealing then :lol:

The points deduction is immediate, despite the appeal.

I was very confident we wouldn't get a points deduction because it just didn't make sense, this is absolutely disgusting. We have one charge and the maximum punishment is 12 points, so how is it proportionate to give a 10 point deduction?

So somebody lay it out for me....how fucked are we?

Sanction relates to losses over a three-year period

The Premier League referred Everton to an independent commission in March but did not reveal the specifics of the club's alleged breach.

 

Everton posted financial losses for the fifth successive year in March after reporting a £44.7m deficit in 2021-22.

 

Premier League clubs are permitted to lose £105m over a three-year period and Everton admitted to being in breach of the profit and sustainability rules (PSR) for the period ending 2021-22.

 

Following a five-day hearing in October, the commission found in favour of the Premier League that Everton's losses during that period amounted to £124.5m.

We're now 2 points from safety with 2/3rds of the season to play with confidence high in the team. A fine might've been worse! So not close to being fucked. Fucking livid though.

The PL through it’s history have always tried to set examples by punishing what they consider are the smaller, weaker, and less favourable clubs, whilst the so called bigger and richer clubs never pay the penalty for their rule violations, even more so now with the threat of a breakaway super league should they punish the big boys and impede on their opportunities in this country and Europe. 
Thankfully we should be in a good position to recover from this and save our season, yet injuries to 2 or 3 players could be devastating for our survival. From the sounds of the Everton statement it would seem that we aren’t appealing against being guilty of breaking the FFP rules but the severity of the punishment for breaking those rules, if that’s the case then I sea our appeal falling on deaf here’s, and the likes of Leeds, Leicester, Southampton, Burnley ect lobbying the PL to make sure there is no reprieve.

Thought these were interesting. 

'For example, a deliberate cynical breach of the PSR to achieve a sporting advantage might increase culpability beyond that already arrived at by the extent of the breach. We do not think that this is such a case. Everton may have taken unwise risks, but it did so in the mistaken belief that it would achieve PSR compliance: it is not a case of a deliberate breach.'

'The Commission is satisfied that Everton’s PSR calculation in relation to 33 stadium interest was less than frank. The Premier League has made it clear that it makes no allegation of dishonesty. We consider, therefore, that Everton did not consciously intend to circumvent the Rules but there is no doubt that it failed to discharge the duty of utmost good faith imposed by B15. This is an aggravating factor that increases Everton’s culpability.'

The ten point deduction is for being badly run. I think that will be reduced on appeal.

The PLC may well be out to get us, and prove they have balls, but it once again shows how poorly we have been run since Moshiri took over.

Colin Chong looks like a rabbit in headlines.

I am hoping the club's lawyers won't be.
