UnkNuk Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 West Ham 0 Arsenal 6 That's more like it! None of this piddling around allowing a lesser team to stay in a game and score a late goal and steal the win. Just go out there and dominate! (Although the first twenty minutes or so were a bit piddly.) The game did wonders for Arsenal's goal differential. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UnkNuk Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 Arsenal 5 Burnley 0 Another comprehensive thrashing meted out by Arsenal on a lesser team. Thanks to these last two games Arsenal has a slight lead in goal difference among the top three. Man City blinks but still has a game in hand over both Arsenal and Liverpool. Busy week ahead - Wednesday in the Champions League against Porto and then Saturday against a not bad Newcastle team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the destroyer of worlds Posted February 28 Author Share Posted February 28 Big news for this punishment, but Everton (and Forrest) face further charges. The charges and appeals should be completed by June. This reduction puts them level with Brentford on points, 5 points clear of Luton who are in 18th. https://www.sportsnet.ca/premier-league/article/evertons-points-deduction-for-breaching-financial-rules-reduced-from-10-to-six-after-appeal/ Everton's points deduction for breaching financial rules reduced from 10 to six after appeal LONDON (AP) — Everton has regained four points in its latest bid to avoid relegation from the Premier League. The northwest club's points deduction for breaching the league's financial rules has been reduced from 10 to six following an appeal, the competition said Monday. Everton — an ever-present in England's top division since 1954 and a nine-time English champion — climbed two places in the standings to 15th, five points above the relegation zone. The club was found by an independent commission in November last year to have made a loss of 124.5 million pounds ($155 million) over three years up to the end of the 2021-22 season. The league’s profit and financial sustainability rules allow clubs to lose a maximum of 105 million pounds ($130 million) over a three-year period or face sanctions. Everton was handed a 10-point deduction — the biggest sporting sanction in the Premier League’s 31-year history — that dropped the team into the bottom three and sparked fury among the team's fans. Everton launched an appeal against the severity of that decision and, three months later, the Premier League said an appeals board upheld two of the Merseyside club's nine grounds for that appeal. That has led to the points deduction being trimmed by four. Luton, which is in third-to-last place and occupies the final relegation spot, is now four points adrift of safety. Everton said it was pleased that the appeal board “overturned the original commission’s finding that the club failed to act in utmost good faith.” “That decision, along with reducing the points deduction, was an incredibly important point of principle for the club on appeal,” Everton said. “The club, therefore, feels vindicated in pursuing its appeal.” However, Everton could be facing another points deduction after breaching the same financial thresholds, this time for the three-year period ending in the 2022-23 season. The club is expected to discover its punishment in the coming weeks along with Nottingham Forest, which was charged for the same offence. The whole process around those latest charges — including the outcome of any appeal — must be concluded on or before June 1. That is after the end of the season. The Premier League said its board was “satisfied” with both the decision to reduce Everton's points deduction to six and how the competition followed the disciplinary process. In another disciplinary case in the Premier League, defending champion Manchester City has been accused by the league of about 80 alleged breaches of its financial rules and 30 more relating to its alleged failure to cooperate with an investigation. The charges were announced in February last year. Richard Masters, the league’s chief executive, said last month that a date has been set for proceedings to be heard in a sports tribunal. He didn’t disclose that date, however. Everton's majority owner is British-Iranian billionaire Farhad Moshiri, who took control in 2016 but has been looking to sell up. In September, the club said it had reached a deal with Miami-based private investment firm 777 Partners to buy him out but the takeover has yet to be confirmed by the league. Everton was once a leading team in English soccer but hasn't won a major trophy since 1995 and has been embroiled in relegation battles in recent years. The team only secured its Premier League status on the final day of last season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
