For anyone left who might be inclined to dig a little deeper into the legal morass the Premier League created when their Independent Commission gave credence to the narrowest of margins in probabilistic modelling that granted Burnley £26M in compensation (plus interest) at Everton’s expense, Stefan Borson has been authoring a series of short articles published last month on his Substack that are well worth reading:
Burnley have won a parachute-sized claim. Will they keep it? — 11 June 2026
The panel that deducted 10 points added a £35m award to Burnley — 12 June 2026
Everton were clear in their statement last week that they consider the recent Compensation Commission’s interpretation of the PSRs to be fundamentally flawed — 17 June 2026
Burnley’s bold gamble may make others more cautious — 25 June 2026
Stefan Borson is a lawyer, football finance commentator and Partner and Head of Sport at law firm, McCarthy Denning.
