Everton picked the right season for the 10 point deduction. they are not total shit and there are 3 teams that are clearly not operating on the same level as other clubs.

It’s more likely to end up costing them a European spot

That's a scummy Fifa goal that I regularly concede. Get fucked by the winger running at me into the 6 yard box and a wee drag back to the only striker in a sea of AI defenders that are just sleeping.

Tottenham are b*****ds.

Yes, cheated to stay up last season and now have the temerity to have a weekly protest when they should be thanking the Premier League for not just relegating them.

Everton made a £25.6 Million net transfer profit - despite the signings of Onana, McNeil and Maupay.

The PL's judgement also ignores Sigurdsson - who was a star player at the time - being suspended *by the PL*, leaving Everton weakened and unable to sell him. Of course, Sigurdsson should  have been suspended as he was, but that cost Everton millions.

And of course the Stadium hasn't been entirely factored in. Liverpool avoided FFP charges a while back because it was ruled that their spending on Anfield's redevelopments were mitigating circumstances sufficient to avoid charges... No different for Everton, yet punishment was brought.

This coming at the same time when Man City are sitting unpunished for 115 Charges, and when Chelsea can get away with spending Billions in only a year or two, the ten points are very harsh.

It should be half of that at most.

The net transfer profit in a particular season is irrelevant when they have only been able to reach that point by colossally overspending in previous seasons. Sigurdsson's suspension happened several years earlier - any player who you think is an asset can suddenly not be one for various reasons, whether it be a bad injury, loss of form or in this rarer example, a legal case.

Everton signed up to a set of rules, failed to follow them, admitted that they had failed to follow them, and then seem surprised that they have been punished for it.

Man City still have an ongoing legal case for their large-scale long-term cheating operation because they decided to fight their case rather than pleading guilty. If they don't squirm their way out of it on a technicality like they did when they cheated in the Champions League, then they will face a much more severe punishment than Everton. However, the Premier League have to make sure their case is watertight which is why it has taking a while to put together.

Chelsea are also facing charges now for a number of breaches.

You can't just say "ah but other people cheated so we should be allowed to".
