If we had done that this season for instance we would have a far better squad and still be in 16th place You realise that its took about 2/3 YEARS for this to happen, Everton didnt break ffp yesterday so any team going mad in Jan wont get hit for ages. We would get hit with our great side fighting for the title in a few years not this season..... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess Everton's appeal or whatever must have delayed that. Leicester wasn't it? Had to sell a load of their players when they went down too.

Geogaddi Posted November 17, 2023 Share Posted November 17, 2023 They are so lucky Everton mind , any other year and they would be relegated with that deduction but the three promoted teams are so bad this year they will get away with it again.

gbandit Posted November 17, 2023 Share Posted November 17, 2023 Probably only need 32 points to stay up. Dyche and their home support will get them fired up as victims. Feels far too coincidental that this has broken in the season where they’ll stay up Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
OCK Posted November 17, 2023 Share Posted November 17, 2023 I'm trying to find something where around the start of last season there was talk of Everton getting a points deduction, but the EPL stepped in to manage Everton's finances and ensure they didn't spend anything on players or something. I'm sure I read that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Geordie Posted November 17, 2023 Share Posted November 17, 2023 Yup - I can still see Everton avoiding the drop, despite this. Will be interesting to see in the future, if anything happens to Citeh or Chelsea. My money is on bugger all happening. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They posted a loss of over £300 million, but it's been calculated as a £125m loss, which is £15m over the FFP threshold; is that right? So they've been given a 10 point reduction for going £15m over FFP? Are Man City gonna end up playing Kings Lynn soon? Wasn't there something about Everton taking the piss in their accounting wrt how much they lost due to covid which is not calculated into FFP?

timeEd32 Posted November 17, 2023 Share Posted November 17, 2023 The best thing about this is Everton will not go quietly about the other clubs accused of breaking rules. Might actually sort this whole thing out (or blow it up). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
