00:00 Premier League profit and sustainability rules dictate that clubs are allowed to lose up
00:07 to £105 million over a three-year cycle.
00:12 According to the Athletics David Ornstein, Nottingham Forest actually have a lower threshold
00:16 than that due to two of the three years in their cycle being spent in the championship.
00:22 When they were then promoted to the Premier League, they spent heavily in the transfer
00:25 market.
00:27 Everton have already been deducted 10 points this season for breaching the rules in the
00:33 2021/22 season, a decision which they have appealed.
00:37 Along with Forest, they look set to face further charges which could result in points deductions.
00:43 Of course, Manchester City have also been charged with over 100 supposed breaches but
00:49 given the amount of charges and the time taken to come to a decision on all of them, that
00:55 case still awaits a verdict.
