There is a common phrase: Lightning never strikes the same place twice. However, unfortunately for Everton, it has struck twice very badly. After being hit with a 10-point deduction the first time, the Toffees would’ve hoped to continue fighting to at least stay away from the relegation zone. But instead, the same problem has popped up again. The league has charged them again for the same reason in their recent findings. However, this time, Nottingham Forest is also on the list. Reports indicate that both clubs will face a deduction if they are found guilty by the independent Premier League commission.
