Everton told to pay Burnley £35 million
at 18:24 10 Jun 2026

So Everton break established rules to gain a sporting advantage and actually gain from that breach by staying in the PL at Burnley’s expense. Their fine is £26m plus interest.

By comparison Saints break established rules to gain a sporting advantage, didn’t materially gain from the breach (didn’t win any of the 3 matches) and are in effect penalised TEN TIMES the fine Everton receive.

Can someone please explain to me how that is a consistent application of the rules!

One thing to consider is that Saints are also impacted by Everton’s breach so maybe the club should be seeking similar redress…..
