These lot an are disgrace. Knowingly cheated the system in order to stay up at the expense of better run clubs whilst taking the piss out of the PL when they were trying to help.

 

Throwing distractions out about city and chelsea to deflect from their own mistakes. Beyond the pale. 
 

They’ll stay up but they should never be able to forget this, hope they get sued. They’ll walk into their new stadium next year like nothing happened. 
 

Absolutely shameful their behaviour.

Basically this. They have no idea how silver spooned they actually are compared to the vast majority of clubs. Staggering lack of self awareness.10 points is barely a scratch.

Listened to a couple of minutes of Simon Jordan on the way in this morning and he was saying in the reports summary that the vermin had been told not to go and spend any money at all while they were working together to sort the books out, yet they ignored them and still went out and overspent. Moshiri telling the inquiry that they were in need of new midfielders as the ones they had were crap so he went and spent.  

 

Funny how this seems to be getting overlooked.

Why do all the divs (including Carra, sadly) think them complying after the fact should get them leniency? It's like Fred West expecting a suspended sentence because he pointed out where the bodies were.

 Because everyone is breaking their necks to compare them with City and they're the little guy in that comparison.

 

It's like the derby where one decision goes against them, amongst the litany of things they were culpable of in that game, and the mindset coming out of the game is that the big club was favoured.

 

It's a reflexion of how pathetically small they are. Gotta give them morsels of sympathy.

I don’t think it was overlooked. From my limited passive research I think it was described as an aggravating factor.

unless you mean overlooked by Everton fans, (in which case don’t do it to yourself.)

From the Guardian:

One issue Everton faced was having to pull out of a lucrative naming rights deal for the stadium with Alisher Usmanov’s holding company, USM, which was worth about £200m, after Russia invasion of Ukraine.

But… assuming this was a legit sponsorship, surely there would have been plenty of other sponsors falling over themselves to offer a comparable amount of cash for the naming rights? Why didn’t they just get a few hundred million from elsewhere?

Thing is with this… they haven’t yet got a stadium to get sponsored. The lad already paid £20m to have first dibs, and and it’s rare to see construction sites get big bucks in sponsorship. Not sure how any possible maybe could be future sponsorship of a stadium has any bearing at all on their 2021-22 finances.

the next time ANYONE sides with the red cniuts on ANYTHING and I mean ANYTHING

 

 

this is from RAWK

This is a fantastic day for the Shite. Ten points is not enough to see them relegated this year, but the deduction gives them a brilliant opportunity to do what they do best. Namely, revel in their victimhood like pigs in shit




From Liverpool? Horrible murdering wall pushing scumbags

    They tar us all with that same brush which is really unfair. I haven’t ever murdered anyone with a wall, not for ages anyway.

    They won't go down this season, sadly. I hope they get sued and that the damage caused by the fallout sends them spiralling down next season and fucking crushes them into League 2.

     

    The best thing for us and for other honestly run clubs is that this is shining a very bright spotlight on Chelsea and Abu Dhabi FC. Especially with the independent watchdog coming in next year city can expect a serious fucking kicking. Points, relegation, fines and trophy annulments need to all be realistic outcomes.

    Imagine the absolute fume if they would have got this,this time last year?

     

    This is such a pertinent point.  Sporting law is so fraught with difficulty.  The timeframe of crime and punishment needs to be constrained to the same season.  Otherwise it is ludicrous.  One team breaks the law to avoid the "punishment" of relegation, and another team pays the consequences but because the context is completely different, these are actually minimal.  They will have hardly any consequence.

     

    The punishment must fit the crime.

     

    Basically they should be retrospectively docked 10 points from LAST SEASON's total.

     

    Get the CHEATS sent down.

     

    Disgusting cheats.

    This

    It's like vastly overspending one season to gets a transfer ban and maybe a season UEFA ban spending a billion pounds on transfers and then having a free slate the next season

    The relegated clubs should be suing the fuck out of them.

    Brilliant the way that Denise Barrett Baxendale refused to give evidence to the investigation panel as well as that Grant Ingles, their finance director. Both played the mental health card to get out of being questioned. 

     

    She apparently had a £7m payoff too. She should use that money to emigrate so no one gets her in a headlock.

    It genuinely narks me how they tried to make out they lost more money than anyone else during covid.

     

    The numbers they claimed were totally out of whack even against the much bigger clubs in the league and absolutely laughable when comapred to clubs of similar size like Aston Villa for example.

     

    They should be fucked for the sheer neck of that.

     

    Cheating gets.
