Ive seen reports Leicester, Burnley and Leeds are reportedly planning on sueing Everton.

Now seeing West ham Got sued by Sheffield UTD for Tevez, is there a strong possibility Everton could be actually sued and those teams win a court case?

    I’m not sure why Leicester would sue Everton - it’s not Everton’s fault it took this long for the penalty to be assessed.

    If the Premier League had got this done in a sensible amount of time then Everton would have been relegated last season or the one before - so surely it would be the league itself that was culpable rather than Everton?

      Not sure how it could have been done any quicker. This is in relation to the season ending 2022, the accounts were submitted in March 2023. They referred them to the commission almost immediately.

      Apparently: The Premier League had asked for an expedited hearing to conclude the hearing before the end of last season only for that to be deemed “unrealistic” by the commission.

      This is still pretty damn quick if you ask me.
