Simon Jordan has been relentless in his criticism of Everton and their actions over the past decade. He has not held back in calling out Farhad Moshiri for his role in leading the Toffees into financial ruin. Thanks to Jordan, the club managed to avoid sinking into the Championship, but the Premier League’s decision to change the rules regarding points deduction has caused frustration.
In a recent talkSPORT interview, Jordan clashed with a disgruntled Everton fan who accused the media of misrepresenting the club’s struggles. Despite arguments from both sides, Jordan stood firm in his belief that Everton’s past transgressions warranted the punishment they received. He highlighted the need for rules to evolve with the changing landscape of football, likening it to the introduction of VAR.
While Jordan’s stance may seem harsh, it raises questions about the Premier League’s credibility. Their hasty attempts to assert authority through strict penalties have backfired, leaving them looking weak and inconsistent. By now reconsidering these rules, they undermine their previous decisions and cast doubt on their motives. If even they doubt the fairness of their own regulations, how can they justify punishing Everton for their past mistakes?
