Nottingham Forest have decided to appeal their Premier League points deduction which they were handed last week for breaching spending rules. The four-point penalty saw them sink into the bottom three with nine games of the season remaining, however a successful appeal could have a major impact on Everton’s final league standing.
Host Ian Croll is joined by Paul Wheelock and Luke Davies to discuss the latest on all of the above.
Also on the agenda is Everton’s prospective takeover by 777 Partners. This week, supporters from The Everton Fan Advisory Board have written to three stakeholders who have a major impact on the next steps for the club – Farhad Moshiri, the Premier League and 777 Partners.
The International break may still be upon us but the lads also discuss Everton’s up and coming fixtures against Bournemouth and Newcastle. All that and more on the latest Royal Blue Podcast.

Get me words right now our second guest is Luke Davis EFC Jord making his first appearance on the royal blue Channel H Luke how are things okay yeah good thanks for having me on first of all but it was a nice to have a break from Everton but I think you know looking
Forward to having them back deep down aren’t we do you know what you you absolutely spot on I’ve literally just said to one of the guys out there international football it’s just so draining isn’t it even with Everton being so poor and the league table looking a bit Grim at this moment in
Time with everything else that is going on and I’m actually kind of looking forward to the game Bournemouth coming up two two massive games coming up Newcastle as well two away games so um yeah we are live we are on YouTube we are on Facebook we are interactive so
Please please give us a like give us subscribe leave us a comment submit a question I’ll put those to the guys um and I’m sure they’ll do the best to answer and today’s agenda um pretty straightforward really obviously the news yesterday that notam Forest are going to appeal their points deduction
We’ll also have the latest thought a little bit on our hearing literally taking place now and there’s not really much of an update but we’ll we’ll get that guy’s opinions and we we’ll talk about it there’s also Triple 7 latest obviously a couple of fan groups this
Past week have have come out and basically demanded answers from you know those in h those in the say those in charg and you know rightly so absolutely and then we’ll give a little preview for Bournemouth away this Saturday as well as as Newcastle as well so we didn’t do
A show yesterday but there is plenty of content H that you can you know listen back to we’ve we’ve got Joe Thomas’s bramy Moore Stadium special which you can get on the royal blue podcast channel that is Audio Only but you can also get Chris Beasley’s exclusive interview with Kevin Cliff Everton’s
Former um well former Defender greatest and most decorated ever Defender that is on the audio as well as YouTube as well so um yeah plenty to uh to go back through if you haven’t seen it already on the royal blue podcast channels YouTube channels and Facebook pages as
Well but we we might as well get right into it Paul we we’ll we’ll start with you news yesterday obviously late really that Nottingham Forest are going to appeal their decision for the PO fourpoint deduction uh what but what did you make of it first of all did you did
You expect that to to come in bit of both really because obviously they were going to get duck six points originally and then the the commission took two points away to get four and I think You’ think that was a bit of a result wouldn’t you considering that their
Breach was Far higher than everson’s in terms of the loss that they made by PSR ruling so you you you did wonder if if that they just take the medicine and and that’ be that but maybe they’ve looked at it and the fact that Everton had a successful appeal and you wonder if
They’ll they cited Everton in the original case didn’t they really H you wonder if they’ll cite us again in in the fact that we we got we got some points back from our first breach uh so yeah bit bit of both really Le’s probably you know what it’s probably
Worth a shot isn’t it from forest point of view hope they don’t win I know that sounds really sad to say because that’s what football’s become at the moment hasn’t it you know we’re we’re depending on other you know clubs getting points deductions and whatnot we discussed on
Uh on Friday’s podcast didn’t we but bit of both really I thought they may they may have just said you know what we’ll take that we know what we’ve got to do now for the rest of the season but it’s probably worth a shot because EV have proven that the the first points
Deduction that they got was uh was not right at all yeah absolutely Luke you know just from a a younger ever Generations points of you and what what have you made of this whole you know debacle it’s not just football nowadays that decides things it’s it’s spreadsheets it’s it’s legal haens it’s
It’s everything else that we don’t want to be talking about it’s it’s a bit of a shambles isn’t it it is a bit of a shambles I think got time just sort of it’s like being a politician TR to understand all the commissions and everything that’s going on you need to
Be an accountant and a lawyer as well but I think if you root it back to like as never told any football fan you want to go to the grounds or watch on tell whatever you want to do and enjoy football maybe hard at times OB because
We’re not the best but you don’t want that looming over you when maybe when when you do win a game you’re thinking oh will this count are we going to get more points taken off us and I think it’s just a bit un saavy for everyone even obviously Forest are relegation
Rivals but you never want to see a club of like nothingham for the stat go down because of points deduction obviously because it’s against us I’d want us obviously to stay up over them but you look at leester as well and you just think like is this really what football
Is now it’s sort of sucking all the fun out of the game I think great point there Paul because I had a conversation yesterday on the the phone with a a fellow blue and we were talking about like these 50 page documents that the Premier League releases every time
There’s a decision and like I just think how how you can read through the whole of that document and to try and articulate everything that has been said you know I I I certainly can’t do it and you know you obviously people are probably smarter than me who do the
Exact same thing and they they’re managing to get the the key points out there and sometimes it can take days for these points to come out can’t you might get the first couple of instances of oh this is what was said and then a couple of days later you might get another line
Like well that’s controversial that’s ridiculous I it it’s just not what the game needs at this moment in time no no it’s it’s football supporters we shouldn’t have to understand those kind of like technical legal terms really because as as Luke says you you don’t go
To game you don’t follow your clubs for those reasons really and you know it’s as I said I’m frid’s podcast it sucked a lot of the enjoyment of this season I out of it for me because obviously we’re on a really poor run 11 games about a
Win which would be harder than any stage but it’s like you know the draws we’ve had recently was you know sucker points of Brighton wasn’t it when they scored late on Palace game was really poor but then we scored the late equalized you just don’t know anymore what a good goal
Is or what a point is it a good point is it a bad point is it you know is that is that a huge win is that you know you there’s so much uncertainty really and like I’m six of the back teeth of it really and I’m probably the first time
Round when we got the 10-point deduction I was really really angry like a lot of evertonians was and icid to read over those kind of documents and poured over them because you want to find out why they’ve done this this kind of time around they’ve been a bit like kind of
Turned bit more of a blind eye to it the forest stuff to be honest because just bit bit tired of it all and like I know we’re going to come on to Everton’s appeal and I just whatever whatever happens I hope we don’t get hit too hard
Uh but I just want it done as quickly as possible I just want to know how many points we need I’m sure far his fans are the same how many points they need to stay up early Luke to the to the like impact then of of this appeal because
It’s going to probably impact Everton’s it could potentially impact Everton standing in the league do do you see this as a is a bit of a risk for Forest because when when we first got our appeal I I I was of the opinion that even if we appealed and we were
Unsuccessful it would be fine that we wouldn’t have any more points taken off us but apparently that is the case isn’t it so Forest they’re playing a bit of a risk here because we’ve got six they’ve got four they could easily end up with you know more points taken off quite
Easily feasibly you know they could get more points back but is it a risk for them to be doing what they’re doing yeah it looks like a risk from the outside but maybe they have information that sort of wear not privy to as well and then you think obviously we’ve won our
First appeal same so sort of set the president maybe for if everyone appeals he might get a little bit back or and then I think if they lose the appeal I give the arguments against Everton and then you sort of balancing them up against each other so I think there must
Be reasons why Forest have done that appeal because otherwise I think it’ be too big of a risk to maybe have more point taking from them do you think they’re just trying to like tell the Premier League now we’re like we’re going to appeal this because we don’t
Think we’ve we’ve done anything wrong I think at times it’s some it’s the fans as well I think pressure from the fans is huge in terms of stuff like this like You’ seen our fans as well like with the banners and everything after in the United game the first one after the our
Deduction it’s like you sort of have to appeal it just to sort of even just throw your weight about just to say like we’re going to fight this to show your fans because otherwise it just looks like you’re sitting back and you’re taking it and then you you get all the
Other arguments about like why AR Man City being jards type thing so I think that plays a big factor into it as well there was a bit of a conspiracy Paul on S when Forest first off got their Four Points St they got a len in punishment
So they wouldn’t appeal yeah I don’t know if you’ve seen that obviously just a couple of you know tweets that are so obviously that’s that is not the case now no no it’s I say it’s just quite surprised because I think all the kickoff that came from everson’s
10-point deduction I think if they would have hit us with four initially not saying we wouldn’t have appealed against it because Luke rightly says there I still think there would have been you know there would have been a lot of anger again points deducted uh I just wonder if everything that would have
Followed would have followed if you know what I mean because I think they they made a rod for their own back didn’t they the Premier League by going so high so soon at 10 and the fact that we managed to get them to climb the commission a new commission to climb
Down four points I can actually understand where Forest come from I say clever people than me on know if they if they’re risking it and like potentially going to get a couple point more if they if they fail in the appeal but it just feels like as we were saying on Friday
It feels like they’re making it up as they go along clearly they’re not the clearly clever people who are on these commissions well well they’ve certainly got the legal expertise haven’t they but it does seem like on each case from what we’ve seen off these first two and the
Are appeal who knows so is it might it might be just worth a go might it might be just worth a go on there there account maybe the next independent commission will come along and go actually shouldn’t have had any points at all like so I don’t know he might be
Ever but they might not have any common sense don’t know whe Common Sense come into it or not I don’t know um they had seven days to appeal and the appealed on the seventh day literally probably appro fast approaching the deadline is that a bit of gamesmanship from forest do you
Think I think obviously the must have been M and over it there must have been certain sections apartments in the club that maybe thought let not appeal because obviously what you mentioned it may get worse but I think even maybe they’ve even battered it off as well and
Thought oh we’ll leave it a few days see what happens see what the fans react is but obviously it’s come to head on the last day where they’ve had to make a decision and they’ve gone for the appeal so we we’ll await what happens with that yeah Paul seen an interview um this
Morning on Twitter with the chair of the Nottingham Forest supporters trust Andy cadle I think that’s how you pronounce his name he was basically arguing that Forest breach only basically lasted over a period of of two months and subsequently that means it was only three games so I think this is in with
Regards to the transfer of um Johnson isn’t it so obviously he’s basically arguing that their punishment based on on that fact should be far less severe H it can’t be a mitigation that that cannot be a mitigation because brenon Johnson’s qualities was was well known well before then I’m sure they would
Have had offers before the cut off period which would have been June the 30th and and Everson had to do that we had to sell rich charison like you know if if Rich charison had have been sold at that time God those what rpsr breach would have been like you know like would
Have been a significantly high in terms of Financial and then who knows if maybe we would have had like to stand on in terms of like you know when we appealed that initial 10-point deduction so they can’t argue that like you know I’ve seen uh a guy used to cover Burnley for their
Local paper Burnley Express cor Chris Bowden big Burnley fan and he’s rightly saying on Twitter today uh after after follow the appeal against their decision like well Burnley have come up and yeah they they spent a bit of money and they’ve changed the squad but nothing like compared to Forest like pretty
Clear even to you know like the Layman and to to People Like Us who aren’t legal experts when Forest was spending all that money everyone in the back of the Mind were thinking God they must be you know with with financial fair play profit and sustainability rules
Beginning to show the teeth they’ve got to be risking it here you know and and they clearly have and like if their argument is oh well it’s only three games because they’re the ones that Brandon Johnson played and the counter argument’s got to be he should have sold
Them earlier you know like we’re not innocent parties are we everon and this but to be fair in these periods that we’ve been found to breach the rules or certainly the first one we were found guilty we admitted that the second one we being charged again we sold big
Players haven’t we you know sold Rich charison sold anony Gordon who was really good for England on his debut on Sunday so doesn’t hold much weight for me that the Fest argument and one of the lowest net spends over the past five seasons in in the league as well yeah
Yeah oh like yeah no one can argue that over the the years we’ve we’ve wasted a fair bit of money certainly you know you’re probably talking four five years ago maybe six years ago now aren’t you uh but like in recent years like we’ve seen it haven’t we we’ve seen our best
Players leave and the players we have brought in have either like say someone like be where we’re we’re paying for in the future or maybe you get players as good as Anana but someone who’s again one for the future isn’t he you know with with the days of us buying
Rodriguez or 25 million for DOR a long gone aren’t they okay just a reminder that we are Live on YouTube Facebook so please submit your comments submit your questions we always have regular commenters and people submitting in the questions but uh yeah get them in
And um like I say I’ll put them to the guys so Luke you know as we speak now you know Everton’s here and is taking place it it actually gives me dread and anxiety to think about what’s being said but just what is your go feeling over
This this second breach and what’s going come out of it I just think because we’ve already won an appeal you sort of come away from not feeling a bit more positive okay but like honestly it’s sort of a a flip of a coin really whether you get them back it’s like
Again it’s like going into the legal and accountancy matters of it and you think does that play a factor obviously they are two separate charges so really if you looked at it legally they’re two separate things and you shouldn’t like go off each other but it’s got to in
Some way you’ve got to think how they’ve already been charged for this obviously all the hassle at the premier we’ve got because of that from the club from our fans I don’t know if it’s easier for them sort of just not write it off but
To sort of be a bit more lenient with us this time because obviously we did have the up hand with with the appeal last time so you’ve got to think like what what the premier leag turn of achieve you like what’s the what’s the end result do you want everyone to be
Compliant with financial Fair Play Because I just don’t can’t ever see a way the way that happens to be honest Paul we don’t know the numbers of this whether it’s been a major breach or you know a Mana breach I think obviously that’s going to come out in due course
But I need a little bit more confidence with this one or less confidence I suppose with the mitigation that we’re obviously going to maybe Express and put forth when I say the mitigation I mean there’s obviously a double double jeopardy whether we that comes into play we don’t know we know
That the Russia Ukraine war is going to play a part it’s got to I just don’t see how certainly with the USM um usmanov connection and stuff like that so like say confidence or not really not sure really not sure got to be honest uh like the mitigation didn’t work first time
Around and again in the appeal they didn’t seem to suggest that was a factor again for them but it dep like I say we have been rightly critical of the whole process haven’t we you know it seems all over the shop from one commission to the next
Uh and whether you know whether this is what the vet Premier League clubs voted for it the people who are suffering are the supporters at the moment and and and I don’t know what the next commission’s going to make a decision of and well I
Think Joe Thomas has said it a fair bit on this podcast as well asn’t he I think what we have to kind of hold back is we just don’t know how much we’ve breached it by kind of thing you know was it last time was it 19.5 million say if it’s
Double that or more I don’t know purely speculating here you you do worry then that we might not have a leg to stand on but as Luke lightly says it’s the double jeopardy thing as well isn’t it really you know uh can you punish a club for
You know for breach for for basically two for the same charge twice but I think what they tried to argue last time there was a positive trend wasn’t there a lot of depend to me on just just how big the breach is this time but hopefully the fact of that foris got
Four we’ve got six you know that would play in our favor but I am I I I do fear we will get another Point deduction to be honest and you know I think anything up to four and we’re right bang We’re In It Anyway aren’t we but anything up to four like
Forest have gotten we’re rely in it really so yeah I’m I’m confident that the fact that there seems to have been from that first 10o deduction there seems to have been a bit more common sense if that’s don’t that’s the right way but you know what I mean it seems
Like there’s a bit more room for maneuver but I I still do worry that you will get another one yeah my concern is just that like before Forest got their points deductions I was thinking theyve got a get the same you know if not more and then they don’t and then it’s kind
Of like well where does that leave ever and how is that fair I mean we we’ve been through all this but L we’ve got a question here from a regular contributor so two wheel Lucas I read it out for you um on YouTube he says if Financial fair
Play is not fit for purpose which it isn’t shouldn’t all sanction sanctions be held until a new system is agreed upon in the summer break I I think it clearly doesn’t we it clearly benefits clubs that bring in a lot more money hence Man City Man United
Liverpool them type of clubs then you additional clubs like Forest Everton even Villa to an extent Villa that really on sort of the precipice of where they can push on their top four top five now but they can’t spend money and they even might even have to sell some of
Their best players so it’s sort of creating a bit of an elite club not that it hasn’t always been like that in a way but sort of creating like a top six and not really letting anyone in there so it’s like a glass ceiling to to the
Likes of every even your Brighton West them type of teams but I think in terms of maybe an independent regulator certainly needs to come in just genuinely in football at the moment I think last week we discussed um a bill was passed in Parliament about an independent regulator and I think G
Neville’s sort of the biggest fan of them he mentioned it quite a lot so I think we’re going to see a lot of change in football in general I think in the next five years and basically with the financial fair play rules I think you
Need to be set in stone but they need to sort of not benefit everyone but it needs to be fair for everyone I mean we’ve talked about this Paul haven’t we but because of forest’s appeal decision now this is just going to lead to the league not being finished
On the date that it’s meant to be finished isn’t it the only way I can say it now because obviously Forest are further ahead in the process aren’t they but this appeal is going to knock it back if for instance days after the leagues me to finish is that right yeah
They’ve got up to a week haven’t they which is just the far the only way th and Everson perspective I suppose if we have the hearing this week and then say next week or the week after like middle of April they go it’s a twoo deduction
And then you kind of go we don’t appeal against it and we just take our medicine and go I think that’ be it won’t be the ideal scenario because I don’t want any more points off but I just want to get to a point as soon as possible where you
Know your Fate’s in your own hands aren’t you your Destiny’s in your own hands so uh yeah it’s it’s got it if if we get to the situation where the last week of the Season Everton and Forest they’re appealing against their points reduction and we don’t both clubs don’t know it’s
It’s bringing the league into disrepute imag if the L A points in between each other yeah I’m pretty sure unless we really pick up form we’re going to go into the last couple of games aren’t we in danger really and like it it will
Make it a f and like the thing is not good for the products you know like all the the big TV companies it could be about Liverpool Man City and Arsenal going for the title and then how can you have a relegation last day decided or stuff like that like last season because
You could have two teams who could go down or stay up a week later it’s just it needs it needs to be sorted well before then but I I’ve got no faith it will be or can he I mean they’re not going are they but can he delay it and
Just push things to the summer and then if you know ever were to get the points deduction the second one that points deduction would go to to next season would that be a gamble even in itself to te well but then as Luke said you got Lester hav you Lester there’s a good
Chance they’ll come back cup and there’s a possibility they’ll start next season or even in the championship with with a points deduction kind of thing so it doesn’t seem fair that they’ve pushed but other clubs may have argued like Everton’s first points deduction should been last season I get that I get that
But it doesn’t seem fair that we the test case who going to have two potentially two and then you’ve got Leicester who’ve also been found guilty of breaking Financial rules last season but their point struction is going to be next season it’s just it’s just all over
The sh really it’s all over the shop we keep your questions coming in Luke we’ve got one here from Simon C who’s a regular comment commentator com commentator yeah whatever um says I’m looking forward to a day when we don’t talk about PSR or the owner ownership situation which unfortunately we are
Going to come on to he said it’s so destroying what is happening to the club interesting point here and I don’t know whether you agree he says 15 points from the final 10 games is enough for safety do you think that’s right goes back against it if we get deducted again or F
Us win they appeal type thing but I think even less I think two three wins possibly I think Luton St to run out to steam a little bit you know they they go ahead in games you play well but you can see a lot of goals you see the fall
Against Bournemouth two three against Newcastle way like you can’t get at them and I think they they’re do with Toon soon I think someone a really B loting but I think Forest is the ones for us that you’ve got to watch out for these do have attacking quality Lang gibes
White and one you them type of players you probably say they’d all get in our team well I would anyway but I think that there does have to come a time where we’re speaking about EV on the pitch and who do you want to pick this
Week rather than or 777 going to be completed this week or is P what’s happening in PSI it’s just I think people try and tune out from their daily lives at times with football and with sports and I think at this season it’s probably be more stressful following
Everton than just normal working days so I think we need to get back to the root of that it it is a obviously it is a business but it’s a sport people go to enjoy and I think this summer The more there has to be changes I think across
The board in football and just the sooner that happens the better and we can all get back to just maybe not not even enjoying but enjoying watching football going to pu talking about what you see that go what youing on even V I’d rather speak about V than PSR to be
Honest that’s saying something isn’t it V probably be bit easier wouldn’t it to talk about another question from Emma EFC matches being decided in stockle park League positions decided in someone’s office after the season finishes best league in the world apparently I mean it’s true isn’t it
Yeah it is 100% it’s crazy well we’re going to come on to football and matters because we do it’s International break but football will retain properly Saturday and even though ever poor we will H see the way I just said poor I could have said a lot
More you know it will be it will be good to talk about but we’ll we’ll talk about the Takeover um and you know the news or you know some of the reports coming out the the past couple of days so supporters are basically called for answers from
Farad macheri 7 S7 partners and and the Premier League Paul um we’ll come on to that but just maete silence is just so annoying isn’t it I mean he never really communicated well anyway but it’s just like he almost doesn’t care which he doesn’t obviously no no but again maybe
J or who’s not with us today tell me better but to me it all the indications that he’s done he’s done isn’t he really now in terms of like financing the club and the interest in the in the club and if that’s not the case if that’s wrong you probably should communicate where
We’re up to with this because what is it six months now since uh they were quite shatty at the start weren’t they you know uh micher was quoted on the the statement when he said that he agreed the sale to 777 and obviously uh 777 if
You’re a season ticket all they got a a an email from them didn’t they they were very chatty at the start but it’s gone very quiet since and like in that silence let’s face there’s been a lot of articles that fill it and it doesn’t fill you with like loads of confidence
About about them as a potential owners for this club got to be honest uh I’m really torn between the the deal falling apart and what that would mean everon financially because if maeri has said that’s enough then that’s a very worrying situation to be in because then we hope
If not a white knight comes forward you know you’re going to you’re going to need someone to help Finance the club because it’s clear at the moment 777 are doing that uh but yeah we need an update we need an update like the the Premier
League let’s face it for most of us a lot of the time this season they’ve been the bad guys for us and can’t argue with that over the the 10-point deduction how how bad that was handled but I’m pretty sure they’re not doing this to part like you know make it worse
For evertonians they’re probably asking questions that need to be asked and I imagine it’s around how 777 are going to finance this club not just for the rest of the season but going forward and we yeah we need an update because it’s just another thing as as Luke said like God
It’s not about the football anymore is it for us if it’s not points deductions it’s about who’s going to own the club and things like that but it’s it’s going on a long time this now isn’t it it feels like we need to know if not either
Way just where we’re up to with it Lu there’s obviously being a lot of I’m sure you’ve read it all all the negative reports regarding Triple 7 and you know everything that they’ve done in the past in football and you know what what they’re do and now and stuff like that
But they’re the main you know they’re the ones who are in Pole Position You’ probably say to to take over um take over the club so what what what is the Bene beneficial situation in your opinion you know is it them coming in and hopefully steadying the ship is it
Then being knocked back mached maybe coming back in taking over the run on the club or another perspective I coming in I think to be honest the longer it goes on it does make you question that there has to be issues there if it goes on for this long like if anything takes
Six months to be done there has to be issues there you hear all the stories from different clubs like Gena standard the age s and then there’s a Brazilian Club as well you think all of them teams I don’t know if it’s just a coincidence but they’ve took a dip in form there’s
Issues around like payments of training grounds allegedly with genua I think and then you just think there can’t be there can’t be smoke fire and I think there has to be something that is stopping the Premier League allowing this to pass through and I think as we’ve just
Mentioned yet they have been the bad guys but I think in this situation it’s good that you need to pass a f and proper owner test because you know they’re going to be the custodians of one of England’s best football clubs in obviously in our opinion one of the most
Successful in England and you think sometimes it’s better at the Devil you know obviously midi has been awful for the club by all accounts but is it really getting better with with 777 I think it’s a bit strange how like you you seen Josh W go to some Park but it’s
Still not going through I think that that that’s weird in itself the fact he’s was communicating with fans as we mentioned with the email but I think the whole thing just seems like a mess and I don’t think anyone really knows where it’s up to I think but what as we
Mentioned you do need the white Knights so to come along someone with a a lot of money billions of pounds and ideal where take over there the new stadium and then we push on from there but then if you looking at like the areas of the world
Where them people are coming from you’re going back to like Saudi Arabia them type of places and then you’ve got the other sort of the model issues that we see with Newcastle United and their ownership and it’s like if that would be an issue so it’s sort of I don’t know
Your hands are tied in a way I don’t really know the answer and I wouldn’t want to be the person to s in the answer to be honest either is is there like a a wall in the way Paul I don’t know what it’s the best way
To describe it but EV I’ve got so many things going on this take over the Premier League are involved in that we’ve got the points deduction process and the the hearing are they locking ons and everything is being delayed or do you think it’s just a you know separate
Process separate Avenues itself don’t know like got no sympathy for the premier league but like yeah B Everton are giving him a big heavy barly you know the points deduction is is Waring because of the position we in the table and we could get relegated
But my concern is if Everton was to get relegated that would be like have huge ramifications like financially wouldn’t it because the drop is is massive but the the bigger issue is the ownership of the club you know there’s no getting away from that and like it’s probably
Not being pushed into the background and it’s probably there’s probably not been like protests as much against like 777 or the I know the uh the Fab you know the fan Advisory Board this week have put out a statement and I think it was timely you know there hasn’t been as
Much focus on that lately because I think EV evertonians a lot of people probably don’t want 777 but they’re worried about what the other Prospect is really because because we don’t know because if maeri is that’s it you know what happens then who is going to fund the club
Immediately uh unless I know we hear kind of things don’t we you know like Dave pal are like echo or reach plc’s business football reporters said in the past he believes there are other people waiting in the wings but that’s that’s that’s yet to be yet to be seen isn’t it
And it’s whether at this stage they want to buy the football club for what maybe 77 agreed for so there’s just so much uncertainty around it but we deserve better really we deserve better you know we we shouldn’t be in this biger limbo as supporters and the
Only person who can give us answers really is the owner and that’s been the case for many years now as you mentioned the other parties we we just literally don’t know I mean Mike on YouTubers said do you think MSP have abandoned their interest completely or might be might be
The waiting in the WIS we we you just don’t know do we it’s we from what I’ve read me I understand the other party is an American Consortium mspr American so you know you put two and two together but you just don’t know do you
We they were on the v as far as we know of agree in a deal with maete and then obviously that deal probably didn’t benefit maete as what he would have liked hence why Triple 7 um came in so the have in F of advisory boards Luke basically this week have’ written to
Three of the stakeholders um who have a major impact on the next steps of Everton football club so obviously maeri Triple 7 premier league is that right once again Everton fans taking responsibility for the club and making sure that you know everything is meant to be run as smoothly as possible we
Don’t know if they’re going to get any answers and but yeah again once again ever fans taking responsibility yeah I think the fans as a whole need to be commended you know the sport team week in week out always have done probably always will do no matter how good we are
On or off the pitch but I think an issue that you’ve got like when the fans like the fan of V board are asking questions it’s like we don’t really have a board in place to give the longterm and thinking business and Sport you you always need a longterm you look at the
Successful Club Man City Real Madrid they’re always thinking five 10 years down the line and with everon at the moment you don’t know what’s going to happen in a month or two months whe are we going to be in the division next season but the stadium will be be going
To be there are going to that going to be pushed back you’ve got obviously the ownership talk that we’ve just had it’s like you don’t know what’s going to happen from day to day with Everton and something could come up or a decision will be made by someone and it can
Completely change as the suced with the football club so I think we need to smooth everything out obviously should be commended the fans are being involved and are questioning but I just don’t think Everton as a club are in the place to to give the answers that we want to be
Honest okay well the the EV fan Advisory Board I think uh EV writer Chris Beasley did an article on this in the um yesterday so he basically published that um the fan Advisory Board are going to publish the correspondence to those three parties tomorrow so it’ll be
Interesting to see what was said and they’re also hosting an online supporter engagement meeting on Wednesday H at 7 p.m. so anyone who’s interested in that go to the echo website find the article and you’ll be able to find some information um on that there’s plenty of
Comments coming in with regards to 777 you know we know the the negative press that they’ve had and and the reports um and we just don’t know literally when when this is going to end but I know I’m going to end talking about all that I’m going to talk about football right now
We going for just under 40 minutes so I feel uh let’s let’s finish off the um let’s finish off the The Stream and the podcast um talking about football and whether we can deem it to be positive or not I don’t know but uh Paul yeah I mean
We’re just going to go now into a crucial crucial period this is literally what they say is the business end of the season at the end of the day isn’t it um you know retaining back from the international break two massive away games I don’t know whether that’s a good
Thing away games it see it seemingly is because we struggle at goodon parks so bourma from Newcastle up next yeah yeah like you know I do I do feel for sea D and the players like because I don’t care what you say all this stuff that
We’ve been talking on the podcast so far has got to kind of not play on the minds but it’s got to seep into like Finch Farm hasn’t it there certainly the points deduction you know as long as the players are getting paid uh they can focus on the the football side of things
To take over shouldn’t really bother them too much but the points deduction I can imagine for a long time has played on the mind uh so while I do have a sympathy for that they need to get down to business now don’t they really you
Know uh 11 games out a win is is nowh here good enough I know there were certain games in that where we deserve to win or should have won and maybe sea D has a point at certain times the performance was is better than maybe that 11 game uh winless run suggest but
We need to start picking up points now because I agree like Luke said earlier five wins even with a points deduction I think should do it but five wins from what 10 games some going for the team who’s you know who’s in the bottom five or be it you know probably one who
Should be a bit highed up if and being for those six points taking away from us Bournemouth and Newcastle massive isn’t it you know we said before we started knock got really happy memories of of Bournemouth but to me of the away games that’s the game that’s one we have to
Target you know Chelsea away after that really tough and Newcastle was saying earlier on the desk I think I think that’s going to be a really difficult evening because definitely a bit of rivalry isn’t between Newcastle and Everton fans you know throwing the pford fingers and we
We really rub the noses didn’t we a Goods earlier this year it was absolutely brilliant beating them 3-0 absolutely brilliant with all three late goals years ago feels like years but I think they’ll be up for it won’t they that night I think Newcastle players
Will be up for it I think the fans will be up for it and I think we’re going to be in for a really tough night there so I think bourma for me is massive we’ve got to go and get we’ve got to go and get something there because you have
Away games after that Newcastle just said Chelsea would be hard Arsenal away and there’s probably one of isn’t in there maybe two of away games but I know the home games are are winnable but they’re all going to be huge games are there’s going to be a lot of pressure on
Them because the other teams are down there with us so I think Bournemouth for me is it’s a really big game Bournemouth did as a bit of a favor didn’t he the other week against Luton did you end did you watch that game I did yeah to be
Honest I was watching it be over to be honest like but you know they come back 43 in the end so did a bit of a say side B it’s kind of I don’t know if it’s too early to say team are on the beach but they’re very inconsistent they’ve got a
Few standout players obviously slanky I think seenu is a good player as well but they don’t like strike fearing me they’re not like you going to St James’s park with Newcastle you got everything surrounding it the records isn’t great of late there even though it used to be
Quite good but you think got B we’ve only won one game there’s in the FA Cup since they come up I think it was 2014 15 and you just think why can we not win a game there but I think it’s the perfect time to sort to change that
Record it’s not an intimidating place to go either and I just think you know like they are just the middle of the roads average team and we should be sort of at their heels obviously without the points deduction so to be honest it should be quite an even game but
Any results wouldn’t shock me of that one and then if you move on onto the Newcastle game you’re thinking like you know night game at Newcastle as it always seems to be weirdly yeah like brings back some good memories of like Tom cleverly scoring on boxing day and
Then you beat them on anchel and Cal lman scored but then if we had some awful games like the last season I think last season we didn’t have a shot on Target in the game and it was just like bit of a dead game at time so I don’t
Know what you expect if you looking at how many points you think would you take two points two draws but then again it’s going back to if there’s a reduction it’s like getting big twice if You’ have two more points taken off so you know let let’s hope for Four Points would be
Fantastic even three points one win but to be honest the hard the games to predict I was going to ask you that what would you what would it be the minimum for the next two so three or four but have you been um have you been impressed
With bma’s manager he kind of I wouldn’t say he’s taken on to like another level but he’s kind of like thrust them away from any relegation trouble that they’ve never really been in any danger this season season of that I mean obviously know things can change but you know
They’re not in a relegation but no I think earlier on in the season when he did come to Goodson and we beat them 3-0 they were I think they were bottom at that point I think they they were really like looking like sort of down the
Battle of going down but they put that run together they they really improved and I think obviously C’s come in he’s ready like s to implemented the style I watched a few weirdly abor games watched them against Swans in the FA Cup and he absolutely tore them AP that night but
The really look like a team with an identity they know how they want to play a lot of it’s centered around salanki is obviously their best player and he’s also reaping the rewards that of this season you can see the confidence and in the way he plays even the way he’s
Finishing and stuff you think like they really look like a club on the way up and I think sometimes you get sort of a manager from Spain coming in trying to implement like a a progressive passing style and doesn’t really go well Bel if he’s in the team that is below the top
Six but he sort of really Tor that up and he’s really doing well there so I think all praise to them to be honest Paul mentioned this a couple of times um couple of weeks ago after the um the last defeat and dice now approaching an unwanted record of 12 winless games yeah
And that was basically he’s going to match Mike Walker’s record of 12 winless games which is 1994 until J Royal took over so you know even a draw you’d probably say against Bournemouth is like solid point you know let’s let start again but it’s just it just goes to show
How far we we’ve Fallen that we’re we’re kind of a little bit on par with that 94 team you only Justified relegation against Wimbledon That season yeah well I was young there about 11 or 12 and I remember I was there at Wimbledon the 3-2 game and I remember the start of
Like the start of the next season on the Mike Walker as well and it was it was very very bad it was young then but it what I can remember it was very very bad and it’s a pretty it’s bad that’s bad isn’t it I know I say all the sympathy
We’ve got for for d and the players and and not having much money you know if any manager in the Premier League if you go 11 12 games without a win like you you deserve to be on the some under some sort of pressure think we’ve had a long
Had a long break haven’t we three weeks like quite a lot of our plays would have gone on International break we really need a response at bourman and I’m With You Luke I think like when they came to gooderson earlier this season he looked like a team who weren’t ready to play
The new manager style they were trying to play out from the back and EV and were all over them I think the first goal that they came from a mistake playing out from the back then and James Garner scored but they’ve done brilliantly and I think they’re a
Dangerous team uh but we’ve got to go there I you talk about how many points I think we need to win this one like I think we need to win this one because not being defeated or negative I can’t see us winning at Newcastle on on Tuesday I think they I think they’ll
Just be so up for it the night the atmosphere there uh I think we need to win this one we really well it just goes back you’re absolutely right but it just goes back to the fact that we’ve got points deductions loing looming over us
Again so you know if we say pick up four points as a realistic minimum if that’s what you want to call it we could limit you know any potential damages of of points reduction so so we got four over the next two then even if we got another
Six taken off us at least there’s there’s two points that that that make the difference I mean the the biggest thing probably over the weekend obviously we need to do our job but it’s the other fixtures as well isn’t it let’s face it we just read them out and
Then just obviously chat about it because you know bany are probably still thinking they’ve got a chance so Chelsea are home to Bley Forest are home to Palace brenford are home to United and then Luton are away to spar so to be fair all those teams they’ve got tough
Tough opposition over the weekends yeah you you’d think obviously we probably have not been maybe the easiest fixure out of them you think like is it brenford against man united you think it depends on what man united say that night that ground you know like it’s
It’s one of them it’s a type of game where United fall apart but then again it’s on another day United could wi two 3 nil and it could be comfortable I think brenford have got enough quality in the team obviously with Tony’s a player that can sort of like have a
Snapshot and win the game on his own I think so I think they’ll be okay it’s not don’t I don’t really look at them as sort of our Rivals even though the are closing the table but and then you look at like Forest against Palace I think that’s a massive game obviously Palace
Have improved with L since gl’s come in but they’re another team away from home we seen at Goods he s they don’t really try and win the game to be honest and I think Forest at home a lot better than they are away from home and I think
They’ll be looking at that obviously with everything happening off the pitch they’ll be looking at that game as a real opportunity for three points as well and then you think Chelsea banley you know banley is still a bit of way away but you think Chelsea should be
Beating them there but it depends on what Chelsea te up and then who was the loo SP Spar loting so hit Miss Spar as well sometimes are hitting Miss like be Villa away it 40 and then get beat the next week or have a poor result and I
Think you’d expect spares to win that game but it wouldn’t shock me at all if Luton to end up similar to the way he did against Bournemouth and Newcastle and did score a few goals and you know spares are susceptible to concede in quite a few as well Forest the key one
Out of all them or is it still looting on Forest looting for me because I think this is Tottenham and on Saturday and I’m sure it’s Arsenal or in midweek and and we were looking from a a Liverpool’s perspective talk about a story on the desk about Liverpool at the moment the
City SES and City they’ve got to go to City soon as well kind of thing I think if we can get as many points cleared as Len is it four to five at the moment is it four if we could beat brenford and it’d be seven and they were to lose to
Say if we were to lose to Newcastle and it could be seven going into that Burnley game that would be huge for me because I think they’re the team we still and then if we beat Burnley whatever Burnley do over these next couple of games I think we if we can
Beat Burnley even with another points deduction I think it might be a bit difficult for them to to catch us so L are the ones for me I still think they’re I’ve got so much time for loting you know like when they’ve come to gooderson twice know went great games
But I I I liked them like I know the directs but as you you saying they’ve got an identity haven’t they they know how they they play in in another situation not got any love for the fans or anything like that in another season I probably wouldn’t mind them staying up
Because I think they’ve had a real go it haven’t they they to show no fear probably been they’ve been a lot more exciting than us to be fair whenever their games on the TV they have a go where sometimes us like the palace game
Like you know we just don’t have a go do we so I’ve got a bit of respect for what their manag has done but I still think they’re the ones we’ve got to we’ve got to finish above I think even with FIS with the points deduction as you say
That they’ve only got one points deduction who knows they might get some back and I still think like you were saying the plays they’ve got early I still think they’ve got enough to stay up even with the points production I think we’ve got a finish above losen
Well there’s just goals in any of the games is usually like whether it’s for or against because I remember the Chelsea game they were getting beat and then they came back scored like two didn’t they like done like last 10 minutes V getting beat came back still
Lost the game I think um if I remember rightly but I mean this is really good we’re getting loads of questions on the game which is exactly what we want so I’ll come on to those comments and questions in a minute um but are you saying minimum three or minimum four
That we’ve got to get from the next two minimum three just because I say say it again I don’t want to be defeatist I just I think God hey I’ll take three whever lose Bournemouth beat Newcastle that’s fine by me I just think realistically I know Newcastle AR having
A great season but I think they’ll be too strong for us on that night I just think with the atmosphere if it was a Saturday 3 o’clock maybe but I think after what happened at gooderson night game I’m not consigning myself to a defeat but I’m just trying to be
Realistic there I think being three if we got three out of these two I’d be made up and they’d be poor Newcastle hav he so they probably want to like yeah you know time finished the season strongly now got nothing else to play for after think cool okay we’ll do the
Comments now and then we’ll finish off on predictions for for both of the games and this is the best question of the podcast by the way Emma EFC who starts at RB interesting one considering what happened with obviously Dyson Patterson isn’t it with the slap incident I know
But I don’t mind in a team I think I’d rather someone react and show a bit of fight and obviously been out of favor with the manager maybe that incident sort of what pushes him on and thinks I’m going to prove you wrong in like a
Weird way but I don’t mind Patterson I when I watch him I think you know he’s a young player think sometimes at EV we forget the same with Onana they are like 20 22 years of age it’s it’s young and but I think you know Patterson offers a
Lot more going forward Godfrey at times looks great because he’s making up for his poor positional sense or his own mistake I think how many last time like last line of defense clearances does he make but half time cuz he was out of position in the face place but I think
I’d go with pass him to be honest I think he he deserves another chance and I think going forward obviously as we mentioned we’re looking to win that game think because his Crossing’s a lot better and I think just he offers another Outlet going forward than Godfrey doesn’t who’s traditionally a
Center half so I think yeah Pats the fullback situation is one that where where even the you know the left fullback situation for me is one that Everton really struggle with because we’ve been spoiled in the past haven’t we with our fullbacks obviously talk about Le and Baines in the partnership
With p Coleman and maybe the partnership with cple Letta Dela Fe whoever’s played on the right um modern day football fullbacks are so important going forward but dice just seems to be stuck on making sure that that fullback position is that played as a defensive maned player and it obviously it’s impacting
Was going forward yeah and I think M meleno benefited from that like to be fair I think he’s been one of our best players this season mikeno I think he’s got better going forward but defensively he’s being really sound and I think I think you’re right I think he he
Benefits from D being defending first more than attacking fullback first like moleno is not a left wing back he’s a left back isn’t he and he’s and he’s a good one at that right back yeah that’s a tricky one like it can’t be Godfrey no can’t surely no I know Godfrey’s done
Well but no just not for me uh injuries Depend and we don’t know what’s going to happen to Patterson I’ve got my doubts I’ve got to be honest because I think defensively sometimes that ball goes over his shoulder and I do worry I just think BSM would if we I know this would
Be great to say but if we had no points deduction say like we’ve passed PSR twice P going to be playing every week because there’s there’s less pressure and like he probably could make mistakes and we’d be all right you know and I think the tough thing for
Patterson since he’s come to the club it’s been a it’s been a relegation fight all the way and I’m not quite sure he’s just there and it’s crazy to say but I still think think he’s our best fullback is that Sheamus Coleman I really do uh I
Know I think that’s credit to him that he’s still our best fullback and it’s probably a bad thing because we’ve never brought in a proper replacement who was ready to replacement maybe Pon could do it but I just think at the moment with points so crucial I’d be going for
Coleman Simon C on YouTube luga said if we get positive results in our home games against banley forest brenford and Sheffield united we should be safe that’s my hope I mean the teams that he just listed off there they all home games any other season you would fully
Expect Evan to get maximum points from that so it’s really like we we should be winning all those games yeah I’d agree with that we should be winning them games like if you went at the start of the Season went through the fixure LIF and ticked off
Where you think you to win the games they’d certainly be in there but I think so would Luton fulam and wolves are as well and Crystal palis can go on and on so I think the obviously the away records a lot better and a game like B
Is game maybe that we have previously won like simil to the forest banley games like that so but I think it depends on their situations as well if brenford pick up a few results and there kind of mid table maybe might they might take their foot off the gas a bit and
Then that’s a decent result for us obviously beat them away from home this season it’s obviously I think Bley maybe by the point you play them they lose a few more games they could be caught a drift that’s another one it depends like whether they going to come back fight
You know up you would expect to win them games but I think in typical I and fashion there will be a few poor results in there but hopefully there’ll be enough away from home that will be okay Mark Smith on YouTube Paul said holler from bogatar Colombia hello listen from
Columbia wow um okay so Mike on YouTube says Bo Bournemouth away suits on paper think it will be similar to the full and brighten away performance just got to find a way to get the ball over the line this time the Brighton game was so frustrating wasn’t it yeah I mean the
Full game I I was happy I was okay with the draw because I remember the the injuries that we had and like the how depleted the team not just the squad the actual 11 was that Brighton game I think obviously one nil up 88 minutes I think I got to
That point where it was like I think we’re going to win this and I like started to get all like you know feeling positive and then we bright it even down to 10 men and we H you know we can see that that should have been a bit of a
Tning point that shouldn’t it really can you imagine even though it only would have been two points extra that would have be massive yeah because we won’t be talking about 11 games Mike Walker records stuff like that and then you know like I say I’m not like I do still
Believe like Shawn D is the best man for the the job currently and but I’m not like you know he’s not without faults and I think we’ve seen some of those faults in recent games what apart from the points deduction all the uncertainy off the FI what I do have sympathy for
Him is he can’t put the ball in the back of the net and like Brighton away Jack Harrison should have done better with a chance and Betto should have done better of a chance like you know one thing i’ I’ve got to say we create a lot more
Chances on the even though it might not be free flowing football I think we’ve definitely created a lot more chances on the dates this season than say Lampard at the start of last season and and and at times during his first season or first half season in charge uh I do feel
For him like the strikers got a lot of sympathy for for for for Dominick Cal he’s had it rough in in recent years uh but he’s got to start putting the ball in the back in that now and best has too best too I
Know he did in the at home to West H but they’ve got to start putting the CH es away because Brighton it should have been safeer the game should have been safe I know we weren’t great the first half but it was nil nil rode the storm a
Little bit but after we went one up through brf we had big chances in that game and I actually didn’t see the United game was at my son’s football and like once I got back in the car and it was 2N and it we had it on the radio and
It was you know it just an usual two-nil defeat of L Stafford but again it sounded like the same we had chances but we can’t finish who who starts then for up front better or up car obviously bto’s had R the rub the green with dice the past two I think hasn’t
He I I still think Dominick calv Le is a better footballer than b and I like calv Leen but B scored more like is more scored more recently I know he missed the penalty against West Ham but he scored after that uh it might be time to keep with him you know that’s
Nothing against calv Leen but if you’re 20 games at a goal something’s got to give asn’t it at some point and uh if you if you better you want to run so I think i’ be half time since to start with him what would you do what would
You go with I think I’d stick with C I think obvious he’s in the r he hadn’t scored since like October 29th something like that I think so I think the only way to break it is to be on the pitch and score a goal I think you know
Hopefully it comes like London buses in the end if he scores one scores two we all going home happy that we’ve won two nil against Bournemouth but back to reality I think yeah I think he’ll stick with better I think D will stick with better I think he likes that robust
Center for would you see with his time against with with banley you know rough The Defenders up I think Bourn the type of Team not really a team of Fighters as well so I think Betto maybe preferred from the start but I would like if the
Game is like level let’s say on 60 Minutes I would like to see C Le introduced and even other players like Dobbin and chimy I think when Dobbin comes on he always looks promising I think when he comes on he’s always TR about a fight out and he’s about 20
Years of age rather than coming on with the two up and he can properly have a good goal I think chimi as well he s a stuck in between the levels I think when I’ve watched him through on the 21s he looks a lot better than people that say
Mage hasm but then obviously when he makes that step up it’s s certain finishes that at times his decision maker could be better but yes answer the question I’d go with calv but I think the manager will go with better yeah I agree I think I agree with both of that
And I just think I was a bit disappointed despite caval and I was not scoring in so many games that he did swap it around because dor was out for so many months and that’s kind of way we dropped off a little bit the plan a was
Dor and car Le getting them you know playing in in some sort of a rhythm dor hasn’t been anywhere near the level that he that he was at the beginning and you know the season and in December I feel like if those two would be able to play
Together get that plan out back on back on track and see where we go from there but he took har L out the team and we I know Betto scored um but I agree with you that I think he’s the more technical better I think he’s the more dangerous
Player as well but there obviously the argument there as well for ble to to be given a chance we will see what happens some fantastic positive comment from the blues here Blues YouTube channel regular comment can’t see us winning either match said we haven’t done the double or
The league double over the team for multiple years and beating Bournemouth would enable us to do that yeah yeah yeah points there a good points sad book up points okay well we’ll um we’ll finish off with predictions for for both games then we’re literally just under an
Hour or literally just gone over the hour now so Luke uh start with you for predictions we doing head and heart are we just doing head um I think we whatever whatever I can’t see you scoring more than like two goals so I think I’m going to go for a one all at
Bournemouth and I think I’m going to go for a bordon nil nil at Newcastle okay my head saying a points but I can’t say that uh I’m going to go 2-1 at Bournemouth and then this is definitely my heart speaking nil nil at Newcastle so an amazing Four
Points well I’m going to not give my prediction out and wait till Friday I don’t know if I’m going to be on the podcast Friday but um I predicted the United score two n by the way not that I’ve got any pleasure two for two next okay well
Anything else to speak about so you think we’re all anything else together not all good yeah amazing well uh Luke thanks for coming on the show we’ll have to get you on have to get you on more regularly really good H good speaker well articulate really good wasn’t it

Why did we not take high court action against the premier league because there was nothing in the rules regarding points deduction, the made it up as they go along, it’s a joke
Forest knew in September 2022 they were in breach of PSR. Everton's punishment is the debt they now have to service. Everton face two punishments in one season because the Premier League didnt have adequate rules or procedures in place – that shouldn't be to Everton's detriment.
I am a Everton fan for 54years now. I haven't seen anything like it all the years I have been watching Everton. Being found guilty again for a second time is absolutely ridiculous. I have been so disappointed and fed up with the whole think. It has been 3 year's of stress. With covid and no fan behind closed doors. Building a new stadium 🏟 with a war in Ukraine 🇺🇦 with steel prices going up trebled. No new schedule
Signings in January. Then psr ruals. And points deduction. And now a second one is really getting to the bottom half of the league. The top of the league are getting away with psr ruals and points deduction. It is horrible now.
Hi chaps, if 777 take over Everton, and it all goes tits up. Guarantee Evertonians will saying the Premier League is corrupt…..
Its hilarious to think that Forest was given leniency for allowing the commission to expedite the processes, yet have appealed cause additional processes… the question is i guess…by appealing should they automatically receive the 2 points back?
Lads, I'm not sure if you are aware of this but when I click on your video it actually doesn't begin until almost 3 minutes have elapsed. I am thinking you might lost some viewers if they get impatient and just shut it down. I have seen this quite a few times on some of your other vids so I know to just fast forward but I think you might lose some people. Good stuff though.
