The vague and inconsistent nature of the punishments, as well as the lack of clear guidelines for penalties, has raised questions about the league's approach.

Nottingham Forest has been deducted four points in the Premier League for breaching the Profit and Sustainability rules, moving them into the relegation zone. This is the second points deduction in the league this season, following Everton's earlier penalty. The independent commission's report stated that Forest's charge warranted a six-point penalty but was reduced to four points after mitigation, including an early plea and cooperation with the investigation. Forest expressed disappointment with the decision, citing exceptional cooperation with the Premier League throughout the process. The club was charged in January for breaching financial regulations over the period ending in the 2022-23 season.

The club admitted to breaching the relevant PSR threshold by £34.5 million and demonstrated "exceptional cooperation" throughout the process.

This comes after the club reported losses exceeding the allowed amount over a three-year period. Everton also faced a points deduction earlier this season. Forest have 14 days to appeal the decision, and the Premier League has set a backstop date for any appeal. The club's argument centers around the sale of Brennan Johnson to Tottenham Hotspur. This is the third case of a Premier League club facing action for breaching financial rules, with Manchester City and Chelsea also under investigation.
Everton's 10-point sanction for breaching the Premier League's profit and sustainability rules has been reduced to six points on appeal, moving the club from 17th to 15th in the league table. The decision comes after the club filed an appeal against the harshest penalty in Premier League history, with two of their nine grounds upheld by the Appeal Board. Everton expressed satisfaction with the ruling, stating that the original 10-point deduction was deemed inappropriate when assessed against available benchmarks. The club also emphasized its commitment to cooperating with the Premier League in ongoing proceedings related to further contraventions of the profit and sustainability rules.

The club called the original decision "wholly disproportionate and unjust" and appealed, resulting in four points being restored. This reduction is seen as a positive for the club, but they still face a second PSR breach charge for the 2022-23 season, potentially impacting their status in the top flight of English football.

Everton's legal team will challenge the severity of the sporting sanction and argue mitigating factors, while the club questions the fairness of potentially receiving two sporting sanctions in the same season.
Everton has been hit with a record 10-point deduction by the Premier League for breaching profitability and sustainability rules. The club had initially argued against the breach but eventually conceded, claiming a smaller breach of £9.7 million instead of the £19.5 million calculated by the league. The written reasons behind the judgement highlight Everton's poor judgement, financial irresponsibility, and deliberate misleading of the Premier League. The club's defense centered around the construction of their new stadium and the treatment of stadium costs in the PSR calculations. The commission found Everton guilty and imposed the most severe penalty in Premier League history.

Juventus has the right to file a new appeal against the decision.
