Selfishly woukd love one last visit to goodison before it gets flattened
So given last sentence they will be better off getting relegated this season?Those saying nothing will happen could do worse than read all the small print in this. Only 2 clubs have been referred under this rule in the history of the PL - City and Everton. Referring to the independent commission by the PL is a bit like VAR asking the ref to go look at the monitor - the offence has happened, the penalty will occur eventually. The ‘lesser’ penalty is a points deduction. These are rules developed, managed and agreed to by all PL shareholders (equal shares are owned by the 20 clubs in the league at any point). It takes 14 shareholder votes to refer a club to the independent financial body, so 14 clubs have already voted to refer both City and Everton. Penalties given for this rule only apply in the season the ruling eventually happens - it will not happen in either case this season (if either are relegated then the clock resets). The independent financial body has no link to any of the PL clubs and is appointed by a vote of 14 or more members as an impartial body. The findings of the independent financial body will then be translated into a penalty by pre-agreed PL rules (signed up to by all 20 clubs as a condition of their membership) and the 20 members will vote to enforce the penalty. Unlike UEFA, there is no time limit on PL financial offences, so City have 9 seasons of offences under investigation, Everton now have 4 seasons under investigation (potentially reduced to 1 as the PL members voted an abstinence for them last year due to COVID). Apparently, 18 clubs have stated that if City are found guilty of breaches by the independent financial body in more than 5 of the 9 seasons under review, the maximum penalty (expulsion from membership for at least one season) is enforced - UTD are the only club who have not expressed an opinion. Remember, if Everton are relegated and come back up the following season, all of their previous offences are wiped.
Be a fine and all be brushed under carpet
The EFL have deducted points from some of their biggest names over the years, including former champions like Leeds, Derby and Sheffield Wed. Bet they’d do us gleefully as well if we gave them the chance too.The rules only apply to those that the FA/EFL deem to be unimportant. Zero chance that Everton will be deducted points.
Depends whether they have 4 seasons or 1 season reviewed. The result of the former could be a big fine and a big points deduction (probably resulting in relegation unless they have an upturn in the form of recent seasons), the result of the later could be a small fine and a minimal points deduction (which they could see out without going down). City are a little bit jiggered either way.So given last sentence they will be better off getting relegated this season?
It wont happen this season
same as whatever happens to Man City
It will be next season now
