I think I read somewhere that we won't get a result from Everton's second offence or Forest's first until May, after the last round of fixtures have been played.

Surely that is wrong? So we could potentially get 11 crying Luton, Forest, Brentford or (heaven forbid) Palace players all shattered and broken, crying on the pitch, fans sobbing in the stands, Chairmen readying to sell most valuable assets and then a week later - "oh don't worry, Everton or Forest went down instead".

I really hope my info is inaccurate. VAR delaying things is bad enough but 1 or potentially 2 clubs getting relegated after the final day of the season would be awful.

I do hope that's not correct because if its not heard / decided until after the last game then those handing down the sentence will already know how hard any given sentence will effect the club being judged in terms of points deductions, league placings & ultimately relegation -

They will of course hope that both Everton & Forest are clear of relegation by at least 6 points so they can appear to be being hard on them by points deduction without having to impose a penalty that caused a relegation outcome.

If the FA pull their finger out it will be Man City and Chelsea joining Burnley in the Championship . But what happens if they dont and sanctions on them two dont come in until next season ?

Opens up a very large can of worms , the FA need to act faster

And we still need a striker

With the government wanting to appoint a regulator you would think that those involved in the game would want to get their house in order sooner rather than later to demonstrate that one isn't required or to limit the number of areas any regulator has interest in / jurisdiction over.

I believe now the appeal decision has been made and Everton seemingly accepting it , the precedent has been set for the 6 point deduction for the first offence so the second charge for Everton and Forest one you would expect 6 points again . Rumours on Social media are that they will be handed out end of March , given that the appeal process has been used for this first charge i reckon that wont be used again

Do you or did you work in the legal profession silver top?
You sound defensive towards it albeit in football which seems to make its own laws up until someone like Man City and now Everton come at them with their big gun KCs.
I am finding the Premier League handling of all this very messy.
They must have realised that like all rules, they are going to be broken. So they should have had a far slicker faster system in place considering the time frames of the game and the need to work within those.
By the time the Everton and Forest latest 'crimes' are punished and then appealed, considered and decided upon, we will be near or past the end of the season which will make a farce of the whole thing. As for Man City, well if that isn't driven by Middle Eastern investment considerations then I dont know what is.
The more these bodies tamper with the game, the worse it all seems to get.
They must find a way to short circuit this whole sorry matter so that it is simplified and if the rules are broken a straightforward mathematical fine / points deduction.
They really are making a mountain out of what should be a small hill and not giving it enough urgent attention.
If they continue to allow the legal profession to control it, then it will not improve from its current mess.
