Everton points deduction reduced 13:50 - Feb 26 with 19553 views | Wilkinswatercarrier | Reduced by 4 points to 6. Can't surely have them get relegated rather than little old Luton. What a joke.

Everton points deduction reduced on 13:54 - Feb 26 with 7085 views | daveB | They are facing a second points deduction for this season so may well end up getting a 12 point hit this season.

Everton points deduction reduced on 13:55 - Feb 26 with 7050 views | LazyFan | This will be about Citeh really, so when they appeal against relegation, it will be reduced to -30 pts. They cannot win anything in that season but still stay up for the season after. Same with the Scum. It's not about Everton it's about the others. Florist will be upset at this now, as if Luton win a couple they are in trouble. | ![](/images/avatars/1596.gif) |

Everton points deduction reduced on 16:02 - Feb 26 with 6566 views | WatfordR | It's utter nonsense that these points deductions are being applied and amended mid season. Should be done prior to the start of the season, and should not be changed after that point. We know from our appeal that courts take the view that it's the Prem/EFL's competition, so they can do what they like, so why they can't dictate that all clubs have a business year that ends, let's say 5 April, and that results for that year are complete by, let's say 30 Jun, so that any punishment may be applied before the start of the next season. No results released by then, max points deduction automatically applied. The current system is open to all sorts of abuse, and is unfair on other clubs which are complying with the rules. I suspect though, it will take a club to actually sue the ruling body/ies to ever get this changed. Why the f@ck Luton now, and Wycombe before them should be treated in this way is unfathomable, it's discriminatory at the very least. | ![](/images/avatars/1911.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Yes agree it’s all utter nonsense highlighted by the PL stating that when they dish out their punishment to Everton again and Forrest soon and the outcome of any appeal will be announced no later than a week after the season has finished..When the new regulator is appointed for next season the top rich clubs will be able to lose as much as they like as long it is guaranteed in a sort of escrow account.Might as well dump the whole FFP charade. The Premier league is just a place clubs like Brentford Luton Bournmouth and many others to visit for a short time and most of their fans prefer the championship. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |
Everton points deduction reduced on 17:03 - Feb 26 with 6345 views | numptydumpty | Forest broke the rules knowingly but it worked they went up. Second season and a small points dedcution could have little effect and will still get parachute payments if they went down so financially themselves breaking the rules and managing two or three seasons in the premiership would have made the rule breaking a risk well taken even if they are correctly punished. Stupid system that has no real set punishments and the timings of changes make the whole situation farcical !!! | ![](/images/avatars/9720.gif) |

Yes totally agree it’s a farce get 10 points then reduced to 6 during the season. Ridiculous for other clubs. Give the deduction at start of the season no change that’s it. Sometimes think would have been better if we had 6 points deduction instead of the huge fine we are still playing. Unsurprisingly the big clubs City the scum flout the laws and get away with it. | ![](/images/avatars/0.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

There is a lot of noise about the rule breaking by City and Chelsea and the rule breaking by City so am led to believe the number of transgressions is in three figures. These rumours whether true or not have been.bandied around for a year or so, so why has nothing been done. Should be done immediately. Or are they not going to be doing anything at all. If City have transgressed more than 100 occasions in comparison to others, it's on a par with Glasgow Rangers who got relegated down about six leagues. City and Chelsea could then be regular competitors at Wembley finals still. FA Vase !!!! | ![](/images/avatars/9720.gif) |

Everton points deduction reduced on 07:11 - Feb 27 with 5303 views | PlanetHonneywood | As with any forum with the power to issue sanctions, a right of appeal is part of the process of natural justice. Thus, for me, the questions are: What rule(s) did Everton break? What were the penalties for breaking those rules? Were they known? Was the decion finding Everton guilty fair? Was the penalty appropriate for the rule(s) broken, and in line with those handed down to other clubs? If the penalties were appropriate, why and on what basis have they been reduced? Reading got a double points deduction last season if I recall correctly. No idea if they appealed, or if their breach and treatment the same. However, I have zero confidence that our authorities are not acting with their eyes elsewhere, and even less confident that they would do what the Italian authorities did a few years back to Juventus, and really throw the book at a top club for serious breaches of the rules, and relegate several leagues.

Juve never got that much of a punishment, originally it was 2 leagues and a huge points deduction with risk of a third relegation, eventually reduced to just one year in Serie B with a 9 point deduction and they still won the league by miles and went straight back to Serie A. | ![](/images/avatars/20196.gif) | | ![](/images/icons/ignore-user.png) |

Good clarification. However, do we have any confidence that the English authorities will drop City and/or Chelsea and hand down similar or harsher punishments if found guilty? If they were so relegated, then I wonder how FFP would impact them. Surely a season in the Championship with its financial impact would fcuk em up at some stage? Either way: I remain to be surprised if found guilty, that the book will be thrown at them. [Post edited 27 Feb 11:05]
