The Premier League is understood to have received the letter but not yet to have responded. The FAB has also criticised the league for not considering the impact of a points deduction on supporters and accused it of breaking commitments made when launching the “fan engagement standard” in March. The three members of the judicial panel who imposed the 10-point penalty on Everton – David Phillips KC, Alan Greenwood and Nick Igoe – cannot be selected for the appeal board.Įverton’s fan advisory board (FAB) has written to the chair of the Premier League, Alison Brittain, asking for supporters’ views to be considered in the appeal process. ![]() The panel was introduced by the Premier League, which brought the case against Everton, although it is Rosen who selects its members. Rosen will also select the board that hears Everton’s appeal from a judicial panel of between 15 and 20 members. The chair of the Premier League’s judicial panel, Murray Rosen KC, appointed the three-person commission that heard Everton’s case. The Premier League said Everton had “appealed the decision of an independent commission to impose a 10-point deduction on the club, after its admission of a breach of the Premier League’s profitability and sustainability rules”.
