Everton may receive a second points deduction this season, according to a major update that has surfaced, thus seriously hurting the Blues’ chances of winning the championship.
Everton’s point deficit was decreased.
Everton was given a much-needed boost in their attempt to avoid being relegated to the Championship in the upcoming months when they learned on Monday that their 10-point deduction in the Premier League had been lowered to six following an appeal.
Although the update has given Sean Dyche’s team some breathing room, they are no longer in danger. They are now five points clear of Luton Town in 18th position, who do, of course, still have a game in hand, and are out of the relegation zone.
Supporters will undoubtedly be encouraged by this news during a season when so many bad aspects are on display, but it does not follow that additional penalties for financial infractions will no longer be meted out.
It is highly unlikely to be the case, according to a recent update on the situation, which will undoubtedly worry the fan base.
It must be quite irritating for Dyche and his players that they are trying to just concentrate on playing football and seeing results, but it is difficult for them to avoid being sidetracked by these frequent updates.
Whatever transpires between now and May, Everton must prevent relegation from the Premier League given the financial implications that will follow, both in terms of player acquisition costs and overall club decline.
The Blues’ announcement that they will be relocating to a luxurious new stadium at Bramley Moore Dock for the upcoming season emphasizes how crucial it is for them to stay in the top division. Relegation could have an effect on matchday revenue and sponsors’ interest in supporting the team if they are playing in the Championship.B
