Bro what???

[–] Cyberfire@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

At least Everton are not so bad this season and this should not be fatal. But fucking hell if that's their punishment, then the gruesome bluesome should be relegated out the Football League.

[–] ParanoidHumanoid1@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Honestly if you support city after something like this where their crimes far outweigh anything here, you’re a loser.

[–] Dajo05@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

First Reading, now Everton. Kia Joorabchian strikes again.

[–] Rickcampbell98@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

If man City and Chelsea get nothing throw this league in the fucking bin.

'Can't punish the fans'

6 teams tried to destroy English football.

[–] Maleficent_Dust_7462@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I’m not an Everton fan but I really can’t believe how biased this league is on punishment. City and Chelsea would never be punished like this. The sport really is gone huh

[–] skisagooner@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Arsenal fan here. I think it’s ridiculous to deduct points which were earned by the players and the team. This is an offence committed by the club and so for the sake of sporting integrity, the appropriate punishment should be towards the club without impacting the team.

Reinstate the points and impose a harsh ban on registration of new players.

[–] ljeutenantdan@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

The league is a joke.

[–] Quick9Ben5@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Simps out here begging for City to be punished and im still convinced City never broke a single rule. Shits hilarious.

[–] Pillarsoffrost@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Gotta expel city from the football league if this is the precedent

[–] 9layboicarti@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Do Man City now

[–] Altruistic_Finger669@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

People are screaming bloody murder about City and Chelsea but i think this punishment, is really bad news for both. Im much more confident now, that they will face deductions

Spurs, Arsenal and Liverpool might very well be fighting for the title as we speak.

[–] ParanoidHumanoid1@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

If this is the standard they're going to set for minimal financial mismanagement I expect, as should everyone else who follows the league, that a club like City will be expelled from the Premier League. If they are found guilty on even a fraction of their 115 charges the PL cannot hold back simply because of the revenue the club's corrupt tyrant owner brings to the league. If City is ignored, I'm not sure how the PL and FA have any ounce of integrity or trust left, and how anyone watching the league thinks the outcome of any proceeding season is meaningful.

[–] xckd9@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

This sets them up perfect to give City a 100k fine

[–] tarekelsakka@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Game's gone if little Everton are punished while big Emarati Man Citeh still wins titles despite being massive fucking cheating scumbags.

[–] Nyushi@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

And City will walk away with zero consequences because you've even got the foreign office discussing City's charges with the UAE.

Corrupt, disgusting club.

City should get 15000 point deduction. Chelsea 10000

[–] theglasscase@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (2 children)

This obsession people have with pretending Man City are getting away unnoticed with breaking financial rules really need to go outside more. Just because Everton have been dealt with first doesn't mean City have been forgotten about or the charges against them aren't real. It was explained at the time they were announced that their charges could take years to be settled, but a few months later people piss their pants about them not being punished yet.

Everton have left a trail of breadcrumbs to their massive financial mismanagement over the last few years and they've been punished for it after a literal years ong investigation. Why the fuck is it so hard for people to talk about this instead of just rolling around on the floor screaming about Man City?

Am gutted for them seems crazy harsh unless City get nuked (fingers crossed)

[–] mikerotch123@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Hahahahahaha fuck you toffees

[–] mlk960@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Really hurts their title race chances

[–] Lakinther@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I really hope this is somehow setting the stage for relegating Man City. Otherwise... wtf?

[–] whoyungjerz@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

And nothing to city?!

[–] RockShockinCock@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

But not City 🤣

[–] Phulmine@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Manchester City: i sleep

Everton: real shit

[–] Jiminyfingers@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Cool. Now do City

[–] Scalamere@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Hope City get docked 75 points just for the experiment to see if they stay up. This season probably likely.

Stripping of a title is basically meaningless, no one cares IMO. It still happened and the fans had their moment, that wouldn’t change that. It would still be ‘their title’ regardless of how you spun it.

[–] ssk1996@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Man City when?

[–] ibse@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I would NOT want to play Everton at Goodison Park now

[–] Richmantis@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

So what I'm taking from this is Man city are going to be given those 10 points now and every club outside the top 6 will have to write a nice letter to them apologising for the inconvenience? I mean 115 charges against them can't all be wrong by law of averages there must be at the very least one charge that correct in there

[–] MinMorts@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

They haven't even gone into last place with the deduction, so I think they should be fine

[–] aehii@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

So saying refs are shit is 'bringing the game into disrepute', but handing a club a points reduction while leaving another club alone for the same rule breaches doesn't bring the game into disrepute?

[–] whoaaaaaah@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Will city receive a 1150 point deduction?

Straight to the national league

[–] dat_w@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

lol, City going straight back to sunday league if anything comes out of these charges then

Strip Manchester City of every title after 2008 and demote them to league 2 then.

Fuck this shit, bugger clubs shouldn’t be able to get away with this. Everton could get demoted and even bankcrupt for this but City who’s done 100x worse are celebrated.

[–] FieldsOfKashmir@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

I hope it gets wiped clean. This is a travesty.

[–] Dawn_of_Enceladus@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Damn, the utter shamelessness by the FA. Sure, send Everton to second division while Man City or Chelsea laugh their asses off... I'd expect far better from the "best league in the world", but I guess corruption is also rampant there.

[–] jofstra@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Great now do City next cowards

[–] gldmartin@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Wait so what about man city then?

[–] Ket_Cz@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

How’ve they been given more than we got 😭😭

[–] Tamelmp@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Cool now strip city and chelsea of all their filthy "trophies"

[–] hitokiri_battousai@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

ok, so how about man city and their 115 charges?

[–] AaronQ94@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Hey Premier League..... Do Man City and Chelsea you cowards

[–] Dark-Knight-Rises@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Premier league. Strong on the poor. Weak on the rich.

So wonder if Pep will fancy playing Wrexham next season if they get relegated

[–] singabro@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

So they had the money to spend, but broke PL rules which permit some clubs to spend more than others? Got it. Calling a closed shop "sustainability" is like an oil company using "environmentally friendly"

[–] expert_on_the_matter@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

This is setting up City to get demoted, isn't it?

[–] DangerouslyCheesey@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Ok cool now so City

[–] Defiant_Ad1199@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Zero troll whatsoever, but I'm glad the PL is docking points. Now with that said, I think Everton fucked up far less than most and it was trying to work with the EPL on the investigation.

City and Chelsea are going to need a new hole torn if this is as rough as it's been on Everton.
