The_Judge Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Absolutely no unfair advantage gained. Would be disgusting if they lost points and subsequently the title in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamamafegan Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 They didn't field the ineligable player though? He was an unused sub and didn't influence the game. Buckie shouldn't be deducted points for this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdTheDuck Posted April 19, 2017 Author Share Posted April 19, 2017 Though it would be a shame for Buckie, lots of giggles to be had seeing Cove getting reamed by East Kilbride though, eh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good news for football, it was such a petty thing to decide the title. There will be a few raging armchair Neil Doncasters seething on Fitbanorth though.

Vale Vale Vale Posted April 21, 2017 Share Posted April 21, 2017 If Cove had broken the same rule and got off with it all hell would break loose. The league committee bottled it big time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The league committee bottled it big time. Aye, but Cove have been taking the pish for years. The Jags were charged with including Murray in contravention of rule 8.9.6 which stated that any player registered with an SPFL or Highland League club whose registration is cancelled with the SFA or is subject to a transfer on or after March 31, cannot play for any other club during the current season. However, Buckie's interpretation of the rule was that they could recall Murray and were given written and verbal confirmation from the Highland League secretary that they were clear to include him as they were his parent club at the start of the season. Mr Manson, in a short statement, said: "The matter in hand was given thorough consideration, including hearing submissions from Buckie Thistle Football Club and from Formartine Utd Football Club and it was decided to take no further action. "In addition the secretary was instructed to develop re-worded drafts towards clarifying the terms of the rule for application in future seasons." http://www.banffshireadvertiser.co.uk/Buckie/Buckie-Thistle-can-win-Highland-League-on-Saturday-20042017.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultimately, given that he didn't play in the match I feel this is a fair outcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'd a problem with pest posters in the past but the sign up policy has eradicated the problem in the main. Now the worst of them is stuck on here like a loser, speaking to himself.
