Feels like a dangerous road for football to go down. Everton have already been punished with a points deduction. The club's statement is right to question the precedent. If clubs can be retrospectively sued over league positions and hypothetical outcomes, where does it stop?
Further info:
The same 3 person panel that gave a 10 point deduction to Everton heard this case. That sanction was negated & recalculated on appeal to -6 pts. That panel was critical of the first
#EFC now had 4 cases, 3 panels & appeal panel heard. Other cases yet to be resolved
13th then. What a waste of a season. Teams like Sunderland playing in Europe while Everton use the excuse of a “two window plan”. Honestly don’t get how anyone can see any positives from the season but some people will try. Always next year. 👍🏼
From the day you put on the armband you’ve been more than a captain you’ve been Everton’s heartbeat.
Lived & immersed yourself in the city. A symbol of what it means to play for Everton & led with courage, humility & an unbreakable love for the club.
Thank you Seamus Coleman 💙
