In spite of reports to the contrary, Martyn Ziegler asserts that the Premier League will maintain point-deduction penalties in light of Everton’s situation.
On Thursday, April 4, the Daily Mail revealed that the Premier League was thinking of doing away with point deductions and instituting a “luxury tax.”
This occurs following the deduction of points from Nottingham Forest and Everton this season.
Ziegler has since reported in The Times (April 5) that while the English premier league would continue to impose point deduction sanctions, it may also implement a system that would subject clubs to fines rather than deductions for infractions of lesser severity.
If this new method is accepted during a conference between clubs in June, it might be implemented as early as the 2025–2026 Premier League season.
Sean Dyche and Everton would be justified in asking the Premier League for clarification.
This entire situation is absurd, given that the Premier League is supposed to be the highest level of English and possibly even European football.
One minute one rule is in place and the next minute another rule is being considered, with the goalposts constantly shifting, and Everton the club facing the brunt of it.
The goalposts are continuously moving, with Everton as the club bearing the brunt of it. One minute one rule is in place, and the next minute another rule is being considered.
