I'm waiting until after the verdict is in before deciding on whether to take such action personally.

Let us hope the cardboard box is evidence he presented to the independent commission.

If the meeting was on Friday which seems to be the general consensus then they will have preside over our evidence/mitigation. That's another day of meetings in itself, there could be another to decide the sanctions depending on how much there is to consider. This is all assuming that the panel were all able to conveine today, they might not all be available at the same day/time until another date in the week.

A big part of our mitigation must be the amount of points we have already lost unfairly because of the ref/Var.
Notcher
Steve Chettle
It won't play any part. That's not related to the charge and it's an entirely different issue. Our mitigation will solely be based upon the reasons why we did breach PSR, the timescale in breach, what we have done to addressed it and the discussion around sporting advantage.

That is why you need good legal representation to make sure we can mitigate where possible and I thought that was a reason we have hired a super lawyer?
Notcher
Steve Chettle
And they will....but in the correct areas. Arguing we've been on the end of poor refereeing decisions is not mitigation for breaching PSR. If De Marco threw that in the panel of KC's they would think he's lost the plot.

It's clearly not mitigation for breaching psr but there would surely be valid mitigation in respect of the punishment we receive and I would expect a top lawyer to mitigate the psr and the penalty because of the mitigating circumstances
Notcher
Steve Chettle
I would except even a shit barrister to not argue that. It's got absolutely no bearing or the potential sanctions whatsoever. That's for a different case entirely to brought, one FWIW I don't think would get off the ground anyway as it's far too complex and would cause such a retrospective cluster**** that it could collapse the game entirely.

The panel have got the power to use discretion when deciding the penalty and I don't think it's too complicated to show why leniency should be shown
trentside69
Viv Anderson
Maybe so but I'm just making the most of it before the straws get out of reach
Notcher
Steve Chettle
They have, but again, the referee/VAR decisions has absolutely no relevance or bearing on any potential points deduction.

Viv Anderson
That is for the lawyers to try to show.
I'm only an outsider looking in and not sure how these things work.

Well, let's just hope whatever punishment we get galvinises us on the pitch the way it did Everton.
