Everton faces its second disciplinary hearing for violating spending rules with the Independent Commission scheduled to deliberate over the Easter weekend to meet the Premier League’s tight schedule. The league aims to announce a verdict on Everton’s breach of Profit and Sustainability Rules by April 8 to avoid potential complications with the final season standings.
Nottingham Forest received a four points deduction for a similar spending breach placing pressure on Everton who have already been penalized six points this season. Everton having pleaded guilty to overspending, hopes for mitigation due to their acknowledgment of the charge. The Premier League is racing to resolve both cases swiftly to prevent uncertainty in the relegation battle.
Any potential appeal by Forest hinges on Everton’s verdict, posing a challenge to the league’s timeline. The league aims to conclude both cases before May 24 with a preference for earlier resolutions before the season’s final day on May 19.
