So now we know 4 points back on this charge from 10 to 6 and most probably the same on the next charge of another 6 coming our way, still way over the top in my view but Everton at least know now what we have to do to stay up, it will be a mighty tall order and I wish Sean and the lads all the very best and hopefully the Club can show the World we can beat this.

Spot on Guernsey the only thing we can do between now an this next charge is to pick up many points if possible need sort are home form out though mate we can do that pick few points away from home should be okay but its Everton ??.

All games coming up will be tough but it’s in our hands, one good thing is our goal difference, but as you say mate we need points hopefully starting with 3 on Saturday against West Ham, dogs of war from now on eh.

As we said all along the Commission was out of order. Hopefully the next charge (if it happens) , under a new Commission will show commonsense. I have a question. Evertons letter (on X) , states that this new charge includes two periods that were assessed in the appealed charge. If true, how can the Premier League Board do double jeopardy.
{Ed002's Note - I guess you don't understand how it works - I have explained repeatedly what the charges relate to. You need to move on from things that are way beyond you.}

So Everton are wrong?
26 Feb 2024 17:23:56
Agree we will prob get another 6 point deduction as will forest so it’ll be between us and them who go down imo.

ED, of course I don't understand, hence my question. Let me put it another way. The rolling 3 year second charge includes 2 seasons that were in the first charge is that correct? If not, the second charge is only in relation to 22/ 23 losses? If Evertons open letter is wrong, then they are being untruthful?
{Ed002's Note - It is a rolling three year period and there is every chance of another charge after this yearss' accounts are submitted. I have not seen any letter from Everton.}

Letter I refered to:-
Everton Football Club acknowledges the Premier League’s decision to refer a breach of Profit and Sustainability rules (PSR) for the assessment period ending with the 2022/ 23 season to an independent Premier League commission.
"This relates to a period which covers seasons 2019/ 20, 2020/ 21, 2021/ 22 and 2022/ 23. It therefore includes financial periods (2019/ 20, 2020/ 21 and 2021/ 22) for which the club has already received a 10-point sanction. The club is currently appealing that sanction.
"The Premier League does not have guidelines which prevent a club being sanctioned for alleged breaches in financial periods which have already been subject to punishment, unlike other governing bodies, including the EFL.
"As a result - and because of the Premier League’s new commitment to deal with such matters “in-season” - the club is in a position where it has had no option but to submit a PSR calculation which remains subject to change, pending the outcome of the appeal, " they add.
"The club must now defend another Premier League complaint which includes the very same financial periods for which it has already been sanctioned, before that appeal has even been heard.
"The club takes the view that this results from a clear deficiency in the Premier League’s rules. Everton can assure its fans that it will continue to defend its position during the ongoing appeal and, should it be required to do so, at any future commission – and that the impact on supporters will be reflected as part of that process. "

Actually I think I get it now. Even though it is a 3 year rolling period. The charge only relates to the 23 season accounts. I suspect Everton will mount the same defence albeit with a very accomplished lawyer.
{Ed025's Note - a hit man would be cheaper Capone.. :)

I believe you are somewhat upset ED larrrrrrr! It is good that the appeal Commission (in polite terms) acknowledged the failings of the charge Commission. Hopefully the next one (should it get that far) will be handled properly. I certainly believe the Prem job is above Masters ability.
