When the Blues visited the reigning English, European and World champions, well-placed sources were envisaging a result to their points deduction appeal verdict that coming week. On Wednesday, former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher tweeted: “What is the hold up on the appeals decision regarding Everton’s 10pt deduction? “Two weeks have passed, this is surely a matter of urgency for Everton and the clubs around them.
