    I don’t understand how Everton can be sued for £100 million each by three clubs when only one of them would have stayed up.

    What’s funny to me is that City cheated, Everton cheated and people think every other club is honorable and it stops with them? Come on now.

    The so-called “profit and sustainability” rule will go down as the greatest debacle in the modern soccer era.

    From now on, English football will be played in courtrooms. It will devolve into bickering, court battles and leaks to the British media. There will be endless recriminations because, I’m willing to bet, few clubs have entirely clean hands and clean owners. You’ll have dozens of investigation firms interviewing former club employees trying to find financial irregularities and illegal/immoral behavior to send to the police and media.

    The state owned clubs will undoubtedly use hacking to get phone records of rival owners (they bought Israeli spyware that bypasses Apple/Android encryption). And there will be no punishment as the hackers will be Saudi/Emirati government employees.

    This will be a huge mess.

    They can sue, sure. Will they get anything from it ? Most likely nothing or some pocket change.
