Everton and Forest probably have enough points already

Kudos for a valid point well made.
Not sure what relevance it has to my original post, but nevertheless well done.

Agreed, staying up with our current squad and the horrible feeling around the club at present would be a disaster. We need to start again and hopefully learn lessons.ClaretOfMancunia wrote: ↑Mon Feb 26, 2024 1:40 pmI don't want to stay up on a points deduction anyway. It would be the most hollow of achievements.
Besides, I think this team needs another season in the Championship as it's clearly nowhere near PL ready. It'd be a tougher season for us if either one of Everton or Forest were to go down with us.

Can’t imagine us learning any lessons ,or is VK suddenly going to have a lightbulb moment and everything will be ok,he should be learning game by game ,but I honestly havent seen any improvement by an individual player or by the coaches tactics since Day 1.

Re: Everton points deduction reduced
Don't think you've quite lined up the seasons. Note, it's complicated by the covid-19 lockdown season. The relevant period ended in season 2021/22 - which is the season BFC were relegated.Darthlaw wrote: ↑Mon Feb 26, 2024 2:31 pmSo, in brief:
Season 1: Spend more than the rules allow to stay up at the expense of Club X, who are playing by the rules.
Season 2: again spend more than the rules allow, this time to purchase players from the club X (such as Dwight McNeil), at reduced rate as their players wish to stay in the tope tier.
Season 3: Upon club X's return to the division, utilise your squad (bolstered by years of financial rule breaking) to beat them home and away, gaining the six points required to negate the punishment from all previous rule breaking.
I give you the English Premier League - Where cheats prosper.
Season 3, 2021/22; BFC finished on 35 points in 18th position and relegated. Everton finish 16th with 39 points.
Season 2, 2020/21; BFC 39 points, 17th; Everton 10th with 59 points.
Season 1, 2019/20 (and, I think some averaging with 2018/19). BFC 54 points, 10th, Everton 12th 49 points.
The second breach of FFP is for the season ending 2022/23.

Couldnt edit so:
This relates to the three seasons previous. i.e 2022/23, 2021/22 and 2020/21. McNeil signed for them in July 2022. Obviously, the penalty (six points) may or may not not apply but my point remains.

Re: Everton points deduction reduced
Hi Darthlaw, take a look at the appeal summary, the 3rd year of Everton's first breach is 2021/22.
Their second breach is 2022/23. The penalty for the second breach (and Everton's appeal) comes later.
As you mentioned Dwight McNeil I assume your "team X" is Burnley.

Re: Everton points deduction reduced
Nonsense.
We are getting relegated because we had to be stripped to the bone in May 2022 because of Everton and the Premier League, and even investing as much money as we could we couldn’t close the gap that arose because of that initial behaviour.
Evidence - Forest without a points deduction (yet) are still on the brink of relegation despite having spent double.
When we fall into the trap of many on here of getting a thrill from any criticism of our own club, it lets the original offence off the hook. We had to buy young players on the whole (experience would have been on double or triple the wages plus a hefty signing on fee) and now we can see it wasn’t enough. Because we didn’t have that established core of Pope, McNeil etc that would have stayed had we stopped up.

their (weak) defence will be based upon the double jeopardy aspect in that they've already been punished for it, so I cant see any further points deductions for Everton.

It's not double jeopardy if they keep committing the same 'crime'. If years 20/21/22 result in punishment, and years 21/22/23 also result in punishment, that isn't double jeopardy.Rick_Muller wrote: ↑Mon Feb 26, 2024 4:42 pmtheir (weak) defence will be based upon the double jeopardy aspect in that they've already been punished for it, so I cant see any further points deductions for Everton.

Re: Everton points deduction reduced
Yes, Burnley were at a financial disadvantage in 2021/22 when BFC were relegated. Then Everton signed Dwight McNeil, plus James Tarkowski, who was OOC ahead of 2022/23 season - season 4 if we continue your 1,2,3 list. Burnley didn't play Everton in "season 4." Both Burnley and Everton are now in season 5.Darthlaw wrote: ↑Mon Feb 26, 2024 4:34 pmWhich is the point I made when I posted 'Obviously, the penalty (six points) may or may not not apply but my point remains.'

Maybe there is scope for BFC to claim against Everton. Or, maybe the Premier League has claimed that only Premier League can enforce FFP rules and any losses resulting to clubs that stay within the rules... It's hard to know.

Re: Everton points deduction reduced
I think the point (Paul Waine accurately makes) is they've been deducted 6 points for breaching spending rules for the 3 seasons 2021/22, 2020/21 and 2019/20.Rick_Muller wrote: ↑Mon Feb 26, 2024 4:42 pmtheir (weak) defence will be based upon the double jeopardy aspect in that they've already been punished for it, so I cant see any further points deductions for Everton.

It remains to be seen what the penalty will be, but they are now set to be punished for breaching spending in 2022/23, 2021/22 and 2020/21.
It's akin do going through multiple speed camera's over the limit. They don't scratch off the first one because you were still speeding through the second, so double jeopardy shouldnt apply.

Re: Everton points deduction reduced
If we equate points deduction to £X million breach of limit, then there needs to be a scale that equates Premier League tv money to Premier League points. If we work on 40 points as the standard required to maintain Premier League status and Premier League tv money to be £120 million per season, then each point is worth £3 million. Turn it the other way round, breaching the limit by £3 million results in 1 point deduction. So, Everton's £20 million breach, on a standard scale would be 6 or 7 points deduction for period to 2020/21.Rick_Muller wrote: ↑Mon Feb 26, 2024 4:41 pmyou're not comparing apples with apples though.

By the time Manchester City Chelsea and other top clubs get to the time for a decision there will be no point deductions and will if anything result in big fines .
No way will the Premier League lose these big big clubs and Everton will not receive any more point deductions.
All in my opinions of course.

Regardless of the rights or wrongs of it all I think the Premier League is better for having Everton in it.
I can understand the fans of Forest and Luton being upset as it directly impacts them but for everyone else I think we can all agree that Everton is a grand old team that we all like to see doing well and seeing them relegated wouldn't be nice.

Re: Everton points deduction reduced
May benefit us massively if any compo is agreed, and if we can come back stronger, because next season in the PL could be brutal, worse than 22/23 because that year Forest, Fulham etc were new whereas now they are established. So if we add Leeds, Leicester and Southampton it becomes hard to see a small club certain to go down. It may be the year to be in the Championship and come back again with 2 smallish clubs.
(lot of ifs in my post I confess)

Re: Everton points deduction reduced
You need proportionate punishments & straight relegation would be too harsh. Lots of clubs will be at it but some will have better accountants than others adept at circumnavigating & hiding figures. I think you'll start to see more of this on the rise & more clubs getting done & finding loopholes.

Depends if you call the loss of 10 points a punishment. I certainly didn't and 6 even less so. Making profit from sales is irrelevant. They cheated and there's really nothing else to it.

Re: Everton points deduction reduced
Non of this would be required if players and their agents weren’t taking mega millions out of the game.
We’d have top class stadiums & affordable tickets. And possibly a sporting chance on the field for all 20 teams, not just the “big 6”

Re: Everton points deduction reduced
We didn't have to buy just young players on the "whole" at all it's something we chose to do. In life there's balance to everything you don't have to go from 1 extreme to the other. Luton managed perfectly fine with their blend I'm using luton as an example because of a similar stature conscious of FFP. We could have easily pursued a different strategy & still remained well within the rules.CrosspoolClarets wrote: ↑Mon Feb 26, 2024 4:28 pmNonsense.

So:-
1. Multiple claims of rule breaching were alleged.
2. The allegations were admitted, but
3. There was an appeal based upon the sentencing applied to the admitted breaches.
4. The appeal was based on nine points, seven of which were thrown out. The claimants succeeded on only two points.
5. The proportionate point deduction for the admitted breaches, when correctly applied was 6 points.
6. Everton, having admitted the breaches, ought to have suffered the point deduction in the relevant year, but by appealing/dragging matters out, the points deduction is to be applied two years later than it should have.
7. Had the 6 point deduction been applied to the relevant year then Everton would have been relegated and team X reprieved.
8. As a result of the above, team X suffered significant financial loss, and Everton received income that they would not have received had the penalty been properly been applied to the relevant season, and consequential, team X have suffered that financial loss as a direct result of Everton failing to comply with the league rules.
And team X therefore claims........
It's debatable whether the Premier league should be added in as a defendant, as if the breaches were admitted, the penalty should have been applied immediately. If you kill your grandmother, and admit it, you aren't going to be let out on bail while the appeal is heard, are you?

Re: Everton points deduction reduced
Team X would have been Leicester...
They can hardly take the moral high ground. They broke FFP to get promoted out of the championship and we're punished by just a fine.

Re: Everton points deduction reduced
Everton should be automatically relegated. No ifs and no buts. As a direct result of their cheating in 2021/22 we were relegated. Lance Armstrong was caught cheating and stripped of all his titles. Ben Johnson and other athletes were caught cheating and stripped of their titles. It should be no different for football teams caught cheating.
