I guess the club will have been informed prior to the publication of the decision. |  | | |  |

This conspiracy narrative seems ever more prevalent in football now. It’s a bit weird. |  |

I suspect Everton will spend even if it results in a further points deduction rather than know they will avoid one. |  |

They’d certainly be better off overspending if it guarantees enough goals to turn a few losses into draws and draws into wins. A crazy state of affairs really. A 6 points deduction is pretty much meaningless for a lot of teams and no disincentive. |  |

Forest have ended up with a very good squad through it haven't they? |  |

Absolutely. The stars aligned for them. Three dreadful teams that were so far adrift, a points penalty wasn’t a problem. I’m amazed how they have managed to turn it around so quickly though, particularly after that ridiculously expensive, scattergun recruitment policy they adopted when they came up. I’ll admit, I thought Nuno was a one-trick pony after the Wolves job, but he’s gone in and organized a bloated, directionless squad almost instantly, a bit like Maresca is doing at Chelsea. Thinking about it, pretty much what KM also did with us, three years ago. |  |

It’s funny how it’s all a conspiracy when other teams get dodgy pens against us, or we don’t get anything… Yet a miles offside goal yesterday and ‘the lino might have thought the defender flicked it on’ 😂 |  |

Relegated so it's not a fight. But he has a shiny new stadium and championship promotion to manage instead. |  |

He's a messiah.its a win win for him |  | |  |

Relatively recently Newcastle, Leeds and Villa have all been relegated. The establishment (whatever that is) couldn’t care less about Everton. They are just another club who were big in the 80s and some call ‘proper’. Everton have been fortunate in pulling survival out of the hat but they haven’t really progressed. They have no money, no fully fit first team strikers and they stand a good chance of going down. |  | |  |
I’m thinking Everton expect to avoid a points deduction.. on 23:12 - Jan 13 with 1807 views | NeverSayDie | I don’t think a club will receive notification prior to the public release by the FA, I hope not anyway. I think Everton are confident, as you say, it’s Leicester that seem to be flying closest to the line, as they were significantly in breach last time (which will count again for the PSR period) and although they sold a lot of players, they also get a significantly reduced allowance (like us) due to being in the Championship last season, if my maths is correct; that should be a tolerance of £83 million for the 3 year period. I would love to see them docked points! Equally, I think the reduced first season PSR figure for promoted teams is diabolical. It could be easily altered to be fairer and I think clubs that are promoted without having been in receipt of parachute payments should be given the full £35 million allowance in their first season, otherwise they are very unfairly hampered. Teams in receipt of parachute payments already have a significant advantage, this just gives them another unfair edge over rivals. [Post edited 13 Jan 23:41]

That's right, there's absolutely no corruption in football, least of all in the English game. |  | |  |

Incompetence and corruption are two totally different things. I struggle to see how Everton have benefited from FA corruption. |  | |  |
