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

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

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.

Without having read the article or caring too much, how did Everton get deducted before City? Worse lawyers?

Didn’t know this was about Manchester City, the club the im told no one here cares about.

Cities trophies need handing down to Liverpool & arsenal and taken to the conference.

Chelsea the same!

Always scousers who get punished

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.

Better get popcorn for the next allegations to get judged then

They better throw the fucking book at city, or I'm burning down the premier league HQ

Hahahahahaha fuck you toffees

4 points 💀

Damn, they’re going down

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

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"

Would’ve really appreciated this 6 months ago instead of now :/

Meanwhile City…

Really hurts their title race chances

Man City watchers in their sub seem to be convinced that Everton’s spending above what they are organically capable of seems to be different from City’s 13 years of spending more than what they are organically capable of.

That 100m a year sponsorship from a PO Box in slough? Registered to Etihad fish and chips? Don’t worry about it mate. That makes it legit.

Ok cool now so City

This is over A £19.5m overspend.

But not City 🤣

Guess Man City have the better lawyers!!

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

And nothing to city?!

What about Man City and Chelsea?

They're not being punished because you spend too much. They're punished because they did not spend enough.

Juventus 🤝 Everton

Not many Man City flares in here I see, shocking, that.

Chelsea supporter here - suck my cock.

Manchester City: i sleep

Everton: real shit

Ok, but now do ManCity please.

The EPL is really mad at Manchester City and Chelsea for finding ways to avoid the rules.

So Everton takes the blame.

Tell me how FFP is better than a Luxury Tax again.

Moral of the story: Do not cooperate with the FA or any other organisation, threaten them with lawsuits and act as if you've done nothing wrong.

City when?

I’m all for Everton going down but not like this.

Man city must be shitting it

Man City never docked anything....

Though I understand the immediate comparisons to City, at least in terms of how quickly this happened, I think they're a bit misguided.

City face 115 charges and proving their guilt in all of those charges is paramount and, not to mention, very time consuming.

Now will the Prem actually do anything about City? No,I don't think they will.

What about City? Over a year the breaches against them came out and nothing happens. Are they getting special treatment because they’re the golden child in PL now?

This is a clown show if City and Chelsea are allowed to continue without points deduction.

Would hope man city get dropped to the national league considering their 115 charges and all

People say the FFP doesn't work but here we have proof it does.

The question now is what happens next? Everton are in massive deficit and building a new stadium. Lets say they go down and lose even more money then go bankrupt because of this. Tell me how is that stopping clubs from going bankrupt and not making clubs bankrupt?

FFP is and has always been about stopping clubs catching or keeping up with the top 4 clubs.

Loving the City comments. Can you pass me the salt?

They do deserve to get punished obviously, but they are also getting punished for not cheating.

Going to go on a bit of a rant here.

Portsmouth goes into administration and they get docked 9 points. Meanwhile, Everton got the highest penalty in Prem history over 20 million euros which did not help us stay up at all and that money was used to help fund our stadium at a time when the cost of everything went up during Covid. Fucking joke FFP and the premier league is. Everton had been working with the Premier League for a couple of seasons and got the all-clear that everything was good this means for the last two seasons we were selling our best players left right and center to try and comply, meanwhile, Man City has been hiding behind worse infractions through their lawyers for over 10 YEARS now and will probably get a 1.15 million fine.

I think they’ve actually gotten away with it.

The standard at the bottom is so low and Everton are actually a decent team this year they should e fine.

Lucky it happened when they’ve got Dyche for a full 38 games and not Lampard

Now do City! Now do City!

How does this happen in a couple of months but the City stuff takes years (and we all know will never actually be resolved)? It's like when tax authorities go after regular people filing incorrectly but refuse to do anything about deliberate tax evasion by the rich
