Both Nottingham Forest and Everton will soon find out their PSR status; the latter may perhaps be anticipating an answer today.
After all, a decision was supposed to be reached within a week of the conclusion of the hearing on March 7 and 8. There have been rumors that an announcement regarding that choice will soon follow.
Considering that the Toffees have already faced and successfully contested a one-point deduction, they will be all too familiar with this potential. Theoretically, that should lessen any possible punishment they receive in the upcoming weeks.
However, Forest might not have had such luck.
Nevertheless, the Premier League’s actions throughout this time have astounded Jeff Stelling.
Jeff Stelling’s remarks regarding Nottingham Forest and Everton
Speaking live on talkSPORT earlier this morning, the former Sky Sports Soccer Saturday anchor expressed her shock at the way such a large organization has handled these concerns.
After all, it is mentioned that this procedure may wind up taking longer than expected to conclude the Premier League season in the event of an appeal.
How is that permitted? In what way does that promote integrity in sports? Stelling fervently posed these queries, and a response is unlikely to materialize anytime soon.
Isn’t it a mess, he asserted? The fact that, should Forest file an appeal, the result of that case won’t be known until after the season is over. And the same with Everton. How is it possible for such to occur?
The Premier League is doing away with sportsmanship.
The Premier League has compromised all sports credibility by potentially determining the outcome of the relegation battle off the field and after the season.
Ultimately, what good is it to put in your best effort and strive for safety if individuals in a courtroom have the ability to erase that in an instant?
Although it is doubtful that Everton will face another serious penalty, Forest should be handled similarly to how the Toffees were handled earlier in the season because this is their first offense.
The PSR scandal, which has essentially dominated the campaign, embodies every flaw in contemporary football.
The wealthy few at the top who want to hold onto what little authority they still have have taken control of a sport that was established by hardworking regular people and wrenched from their grasp. The sport has become so commercialized that those fans are now essentially priced out.
This matter requires more attention because The Esk has called for demonstrations against Everton’s possible new ownership. This is a stark illustration of how the sport we loved so much has sharply declined due to events that occurred on the field, not off it.
