Nantwich Town Point Deduction

By Alan Allcock

Ineligible player.

Nantwich Town Football Club were found guilty and fined by The FA of not complying with a procedural rule concerning the signing of player Brian Summerskill. As Brian played in the fixture versus Ashton United without the appropriate FA clearance, result 1-1, The Evo-Stik League imposed their own sanction under Rule 6.9 of deducting the point gained for this game.

Nantwich Town appealed to The FA on the League decision at a hearing today, 16th April. The appeal was dismissed by The FA and therefore the point deduction will stand. The League table has now been amended.
