Forest deducted 4points for over-spend that probably ensued 1 more and quite probably at least a 2nd more season of PL money at the expense of two other clubs who miss out on that money
they might appeal even that yet
it isn't reflective of Everton's but they played ball more, so that's not arbitrary or anything
sold a home-grown talent to comply by the rules (how romantic) though these rules aside they had no need or desire to, but not by an early enough date to Brentford where they would have got less money but maybe have avoided a deduction
all because they speculated to accumalate and won bucking the trend of teams going straight back down
and because some clubs dont want to be challenged we've got this bureaucratic dystopian bullshit in football
