They're certainly not

Everton will get it tight to stay up without a 12 point deduction never mind with it. Definitely getting better mind you but it's skin of teeth near every season.

It's an embarassment, as an everton fan, that they're in this position. Spending money and wages on shit players relentlessly and then getting deducted points as if it's not bad enough the lack of points the shit players give you in the first place  >:(

Quote from: rodney trotter on October 25, 2023, 05:31:24 PMThe standard of teams in the bottom half is really poor so Everton would probaly still survive with a 12 deduction.

The 3 teams that were promoted, are probaly the worst 3 to go up ever. Add in Bournemouth who are awful
Last two seasons Everton got less than 40 points it will be highly unlikely for them to survive with a 12 point deduction.
Is the ref going to finally blow his whistle?... No, he's going to blow his nose

Not if the other teams continue to struggle. Sheffield United have 1 pt from 9 games. Bournemouth yet to win a game. Burnley are very open,

They'll all pick up some points though. The play each other, and then in the final quarter of the season they play mid table teams on the beach. Of course Everton will too - but a 12 point deduction would kill them. They are currently on course for 30 points. Even with 40 points, it would be low percentage chance of being enough. They'd probably need 45+ points for the odds to turn in their favour.

Anyway, I bet they don't get a 12 point deduction. IF there is a point deduction then it'll be maybe 6 points, and they'll do their best to apply it at the time of least impact. Ideally after they are safe, by more than 6 points.

Some chance Everton get any deduction. All this FFP will caught up in years of litigation and courts. We haven't heard about Man Shitty since their 115 charges!

I think Everton went through that last year and now it's coming home to roost.

City have deeper pockets and will be well Lawyered up for this.

Everton will be similarly lawyered up. There's circa £100m in revenue difference between a PL season and a championship season.

Lawyers aren't cheap, but spending millions on them would be worth it.

Disposable income is light on the ground at Everton, no such issues at the Etihad.

Newcastles Tonali picked up a 10 month ban for gambling today. It will cost him a lot in lost wages.

Captain Obvious

2nd time this year Chelsea have lost 2-0 at home to Brentford.  pochettino no better than Lampard?

14 goals in 42 appearances for Dortmund last season. And now 11 goals in 12 matches, a case of that league and Real Madrid suiting him better or at 20 he's reached a consistent high level?
