The Merseysiders, who have already been deducted six points this season, are facing further punishment over a second alleged breach of the Premier League바카라s regulations.

A hearing took place earlier this week and the club are now awaiting a verdict, which should be delivered before April 8.

Dyche said at a press conference: 바카라They바카라ve shared the information that was asked of them. It바카라s too early to get a feel of it and we바카라re just waiting, really, like we did last time.

바카라I바카라m sure everyone바카라s hoping that it바카라s fast-tracked slightly, but we바카라ll have to wait and see.

바카라I don바카라t think anyone has concrete proof of how or which way these things will go, particularly after the first one.

바카라We can only give the information that바카라s appropriate. I wasn바카라t there, obviously, but I바카라m told we바카라ve given every bit of information that we can give.

바카라We hope that they see, accordingly, what the club has been trying to do to make sure we바카라re within the right areas that they need us to be in. So, therefore, we바카라ll hope that it comes to nothing.바카라

Everton바카라s punishment and potential further sanction, coupled with a four-point deduction for relegation rivals Nottingham Forest, has confused the situation at the bottom of the table.

The Toffees are currently four points above 18th-placed Forest, but the East Midlands outfit have an appeal pending.

There are fears the final positions, and consequently the relegation picture, may not be resolved until after the season has concluded.

With Everton initially docked 10 points before that was reduced to six on appeal, and the Forest penalty a different figure altogether, Dyche admits he is puzzled.

바카라There바카라s no consistency,바카라 said Dyche, whose side travel to Bournemouth on Saturday hoping to end an 11-game winless run.

바카라I don바카라t know the minutiae of our own, let alone theirs. When you바카라re in that room, and the way they decide things, maybe there바카라s different reasons and I can only imagine there바카라s more depth to it.

바카라But in its simplest form, then I think everyone, not just us, said, 바카라How바카라s that? Where did that come from? How does that work out?바카라

Dyche, meanwhile, played down reports of a bust-up with defender Nathan Patterson during the club바카라s recent training camp in Portugal.

It was claimed Dyche jokingly aimed a slap at the Scot but accidentally caught him harder than he intended, leading to heated exchanges.

Dyche said: 바카라The old favourite 바카라 never let the truth get in the way of a good story.

바카라There바카라s nothing in it, really. It was a joke. I tapped him on the head like your older brother would, and he didn바카라t get the joke. That was it, basically. There바카라s no more to it.

바카라But of course, that wouldn바카라t have sold. So, when that does get out everyone has to add layers and layers and layers to it but it바카라s really that simple. That was it.바카라
