    How about suing Chelsea or City instead? Oh, right, we don’t give a fuck in England. Stay in 2nd League, damn.

      Chelsea is being investigated right now though, and they’ll probably be in more trouble than City will ever get

        Chelsea are still clear. They had a lot of ground FFP-wise. If they don’t get CL this season they are going to need to sell big time though.

    Why wouldn’t every team that has lost a game against Everton sue them? If a team lost out on a CL or EL place by 1 point and lost to Everton that season they should be suing them for essentially playing with an illegal team

    Why would they sue Everton, they should sue the PL for not enforcing the rules.

    Would every club then sue City if they get charged?

    The only crime Everton committed was not having hype videos of their 40 man legal team in their subreddit that their oil daddies hired.

    Firstly, Matt Hughes is a gaslighting piece of trash that shouldn’t be taken seriously. but how can these clubs think they can sue Everton? Everton allegedly broke PL rules. PL didn’t ‘punish’ Everton quickly enough, and these 3 clubs subsequently got relegated…shouldn’t they be suing the league? In theory, it was the league’s inaction that caused them damages, not Everton.

    If this is how things go, then Liverpool is sitting on an absolute mountain of money should City’s success be proven to be in violation of FFP.

      Sort of. The charges go only up to the season before Liverpool started competing for the Prem. It would be much easier for United to Sue rather than Liverpool.

    City have maxed out tier club from ground up. Stadium, academy, staff, branding, international rep, world class players… no amount of fines, points deductions or relegations will take that away…

    Whatever their punishment, they have all the tools to bounce back immediately. Similar to how Juventus did.

    I don’t know why Leeds are suing, if Everton had gotten the points deduction earlier Leeds would’ve been relegated by Leicester.

    So if I’m understanding correctly, the Premier League are the ones who get sued, not us?

    After the fact the PL dropped a 10pt deduction on us already, and we wouldn’t get financially impacted by this, I say fucking pop off tbh lmao.
