Point deduction about to be reduced form 10 to 6.

I predicted as much. If they can't even make it properly stick with this lot, then there's no chance with the rich clubs.Point deduction about to be reduced form 10 to 6.

Odd.
Surely it makes a mockery of the sentencing if it has to be amended?
No one’s going to take these point deductions seriously if they can be easily overturned/amended.
It'll be a £100,000 fine, which they will appeal down to nothing.City and Chelsea are sooooo going to get away with things lightly.

That’s the relegation battle done now.After the change from a 10 point penalty to a 6 point penalty, Everton rise to 15th in the table with 25 points from 17th with 21 points.
A few points change in a penalty makes a big difference at the bottom end of the table

Luton, Burnley and Sheffield will go down.
That's impossible - the sanctions are supposed to be in the same season as the offence, you need every team to finalise their accounts first.
That is not correct.
The offence is (I think) exceeding the £105m losses over a 3 year period, which means the sanctions can only be in the year (or longer following the offence.
If a club has a year end of 30 June (ie close to end of the season) it has to send accounts to PL by 31 December following (and to companies house before 31 March) so any judgement on the 3 year spend can at the earliest only take place in the spring (ie now) following the end of the 3rd year of losses.
Perhaps due to covid (giving PL the benefit of the doubt) PL has given itself an extra year, so this spring Everton are also being judged on the 2nd breach of the rules for the following years too !
If they do, I think we need to consider hoping for a super league.
I know that’s a case of cutting your nose off to spite your face, but it’s just the reality of the sport.
