Premier League chief executive Richard Masters has broken his silence on the decision to charge Everton with a breach of Profit and Sustainability Regulations for the second time in just over a year.
On Monday the Toffees were landed with another charge for a breach of PSR and will, along with Nottingham Forest, be referred to an independent commission, a move made at the same time as the club are already appealing against the first decision of the commission to hand the club a 10-point deduction.
Should Everton be found guilty by the independent commission then they could suffer a second points deduction in the same season, with the club unhappy that they are being punished twice having already been charged for 75% of the breaches over the three-year period.
