Jamie Carragher and Roy Keane have made their feelings clear on Nottingham Forest points deduction
Latest Nottingham Forest news from
NottinghamshireLive as the Reds wait to hear the outcome of their FFP charge
Jamie Carragher and Roy Keane have had their say on Everton’s points
deduction with Nottingham Forest set to learn their fate
In January, the Premier League filed charges against the Reds and Everton for
allegedly breaking the Profitability and Sustainability Rules (PSR). Forest started
its defense against that claim last
Thursday and Friday in front of an impartial commission.
The Reds will have the option to appeal the decision, but it is expected that the
decision will be made public on Monday. If the club is found guilty, one possible
penalty is a deduction of points. For a different charge in November, relegation
rivals Everton were originally docked
ten points; however, this was subsequently lowered to six on appeal.
Additionally, former Liverpool defender Carragher has expressed some empathy
for Everton, albeit with less tolerance for the Toffees’ ownership. He stated on The
Overlap, “I think, unfortunately for Everton, they’re in the wrong place at the wrong time.”
“There are so many clubs in the Premier League these days, and it almost feels
like we’re taking a stance to discourage others from breaching the law and believing they can get away with it.
“Everton’s real owners and the club’s upper management cannot be furious.
Where is the thinking when you’ve been working with the Premier League and
they’ve been telling you how close you’re getting and you still overstep it?
Conversely, Keane concurred with Carragher’s assessment and maintained
that Everton ought to “hold their hands
up and take their medicine” following a deduction of points.
“Could Everton not just hold their hands up and take their medicine?” replied
Keane. “I know it’s harsh, but Everton
gets some closure after a few difficult years. They deserve ten points.”
From a football perspective, everyone believes they have enough to stay up.
Given that they have won four games, this is evident. They need to learn from
their previous mistakes, move on, and get their feel-good factor back at the club before their upcoming cup match.
