I am watching Sky Sports pre-match show now, and everybody on the table saying this 10-point deduction was harsh, and if you want to punish people, punish the owners and this and that…

I get it, Man City has over 100 allegations, and Chelsea has some too but that doesn’t change the fact Everton is in the wrong as well, personally, I think they will be fine even with the points deductions there are teams worse than them and they are playing well enough to be safe till the end of the season.

And if the end of the day, it’s proven Man City and Chelsea are also in the wrong, punish them, simple as that.

I just don’t get the feeling of “oh poor lads, they don’t deserve this…” Please, we have teams in history that suffered way more than a simple 10-point deduction and the level of outrage wasn’t near the same. We have teams that played in the Premier League out of league football because of poor management.

    Because you can’t convince me this deserves the harshest point deduction in EPL history. A team literally went in to administration and got a 9 point deduction. How on earth is this worse than that?

      No point looking back into history on previous punishments - the last premier league club to go into administration and be docked points was Portsmouth in 2009; 3 years prior to the introduction of FFP laws.

      If the independent committee wants to decide that infringement of FFP law is worth -10 points then that’s their prerogative.
