    Everyone wants City punished, and much more severely, but you’d think they’d come out and said “Everton are to be punished and we’ve decided to do nothing against City” the way people are going on.

    Someone found guilty in court for something isn’t going to have much luck pleading their innocence because somebody who did something worse hasn’t had their day in court yet.

    Don’t blame Everton for appealing, makes no sense not to try and get the points deduction reduced, but the protesting all feels like a bit of a parody tbh, there’s no corruption in punishing a team who’ve broken the rules, and it shouldn’t be rocket science that a team with 115 charges against them are going to be dealt with later than Everton which is a very open and shut case. Plus Everton admitted their own guilt, City are doing the opposite.

      I think because that is what everyone is expecting to happen.
