[QUOTE="rolfw, post: 403679, member: 175057"] The reason I picked that up, was that the way you posted, tended to infer that it if it hadn't been the fine, it probably would have been only 2 points. So what are the complete range of options and surely the absolute minimum points deducted for this type of infringement would be the equivalent to a won game, which would be 3 points. [I][COLOR="Blue"]For example Wrexham were docked 10 points for insolvency, which would give them a [I]competitive advantage[/I] by ridding them of debt.[/COLOR][/I] [COLOR="Red"][I]AFC Wimbledon have had their points deduction reduced from 18 to three by an FA appeal board. In February the Ryman League appeals committee had handed out the more severe sanction for fielding a player without international clearance. The Dons had already been expelled from the FA Trophy for utilising midfielder Jermaine Darlington. Originally they had points taken off for the 11 games in which the former Cardiff player featured for them.[/I][/COLOR] [I][COLOR="Blue"]Bury were thrown out of the FA Cup for playing a non-registered player [/COLOR][/I] [I][COLOR="Red"]When Altrincham brought in a player, James Robinson, last season from Accrington Stanley, they did so in good faith that he had been properly registered. It later emerged that the relevant international clearance had not, in fact, been obtained for him after he had spent a short spell in Iceland. advertisement Altrincham were slapped with an 18-point deduction and a £1,000 fine for fielding an ineligible player according to league rules and when they appealed to the FA claiming mitigating circumstances it was turned down because, they were told, rules are rules.[/COLOR][/I] What I'm saying is, that the fine though large, is not a punishment, as it merely means that they will earn slightly less next season from their mammoth Premiership payments, still a vast amount more than had they gone down.
