Everton points deduction reduced from 10 points to six
Everton has confirmed that an Appeal Board has concluded that the points deduction imposed by an independent Premier League Commission in November be reduced from 10 points to six points, with immediate effect.
The club were immediately docked 10 points in November for breaking profit and sustainability rules in the three-year period to 2021-22. The reduction lifts them from 17th to 15th, although the club is facing another possible points deduction.
Everton said the appeal board's decision to overturn the commission's finding that they failed to act in good faith was "an incredibly important point of principle".
