Our position is very much in our own hands to be fair and if it was any other half decent football club I'd expect a team in our position to make the play offs. But knowing West Brom as I do, they are always a disappointment in the end so I highly suspect it's happening again

2 point deduction for Everton
Ebay mark7777_1
By the sounds of things the FFP, now PSR, will be changing for next season - Expect it to be finalised in June this year with no points deduction coming in to play - To be replaced by the 'Luxury Tax' as used in a few of the USA Leagues - It is to be finalised as to the 'hard' wage capped system as used in the NFL, but no overstepping the line - Or a 'soft' wage capped system whereby it is a hefty 'tax/fine' for over spending on an agreed wage packet - With the 'tax/fine' going to other PL clubs that don't over spend, plus expected contributions to the EFL - USA Fines are hefty - It is a bit complex as to a) repeat offence and b) by how much you overspend, but a 10 million overspend could well be a 10 million pound fine, maybe more based on similar USA rules
It is expected most/all current PL teams will be voting for the new policy as it gets rid of points deductions and you can spend more if you wish/can afford
Hope it offers more clarity than the current system, as above whereby no one knows how many points you'll be deducted - Plus of course, if all/most clubs are close breaking PSR rules, then it accidentally 'freezes' the transfer market as all teams need to sell before they buy, but who do you sell to when no one has any spare money
is it crazy how saying sentences backwards creates backwards sentences saying how crazy it is?
Yes the rich ' sovereign states' will be able to 'buy' the appropriate players and overspend accordingly - But fines in the USA system are over a $1 for every $1 over spend - So over spend by 50 million $'s and the fine is in excess of $50 million $'s
The obvious influence in such a system is that the USA own many of our teams now in the PL and their owners are use to such a format within various franchises they own in different leagues
Everton have dropped 2 places as a result of the 8 point (in total) deduction. If they can't get at least as many points as both Luton and Forest between now and end of the season (to avoid relegation), then poor performance will justify their relegation, and the points deduction will just have been a side show.
Poor refereeing and ridiculous VAR interventions will have cost many teams more points than these "penalties".
But you are right - Abuse the system for a few years now and receive a 'petty' fine - In which case crime pays
Back to my old mate F Lampard - Did not realise until I read an article the other day, about S Dyche , but Frank was one of the biggest 'over spenders' on transfers at Everton, along with Ancelotti - So Frank's policy of spend spend spend, loose loose loose, and come away with a 7.1 million compensation for doing such a fine days work - Fascinating
