Why do I see endless waves of everton fans say they haven’t broke any rules, and everything will be turned over through appeal?

Has any one seen the latest athletic article?

Everton football club are really in trouble here, and I believe all 3 teams looking for a court case will win. That is another possible 9 point deduction.

Also, all this talk of a hostile goodison on the weekend, for what gain?

Second question would be, why does everyone now relate this to Man City? Since when have Man City ever been comparable to any other team in the prem?

Fairness is something we can all agree on, but it’s not the way it works.

Does anyone else think Everton are safe, even with another 9 point deduction, because I do. But I digress, why do Everton fans feel they have done nothing wrong?

    Two things, it’s clear City can’t be cleared without endless whining about corruption, even if they didn’t actually do anything wrong - which just goes to show, IMO, the objections from fans are about giving their team a better chance, not about “fairness”. If they cared about the rules and the fairness of them they would wait and then respect the decision. Not gonna happen.

    Secondly, the rules are dogshit and in place to protect the elite clubs, not football, so I’m fully behind Everton appealing this. A 10pt deduction is utterly ridiculous. Everton are the fall guys propping up the hope of fans of other clubs that City will be taken down.

    Other clubs suing them? Be careful what you wish for, you opportunistic soulless clown shows.

    If Everton can afford good lawyers this won’t stand IMO.

      Your last point is possibly the most important. Its known Everton can not afford good lawyers (owner has financial issues so is trying to sell) , so they are easy pickings for the PL and other clubs.

        Maybe, but while good lawyers are expensive, probably not in terms of a premier league club’s budget.

        As City’s chairman said to UEFA, he’d ‘rather spend 30m hiring the 50 best lawyers in the world to sue them for ten years rather than pay their fine’. Sure Everton could find 5-10m to throw at Lord Pannick and his team, he’s already up to speed because of the City case 😂
