Hill o Beath had "exceptional circumstances " and were censured with a  suspended fine when they fielded a player v Whitehill in the Scottish 2 year ago. What have Banks o Dee actually done to merit a 24 point loss? 

Played an ineligible player 8 times, at the cost of 3 points per game. 

I’m pretty sure this was all tightened up after Buckie won the title in Lossie’s social club, with the rules leading to Fort getting screwed by the new revision of the rules later on.

Ooft.

Hill of Beath was 1 cup-tie plus SFA made a blunder about suspensions IIRC.

Almost certainly they've played ineligible player(s) in 8 league games.

They said before it was about 'registrations':

registration error
player not being properly registered

the recent player registration error 


New signings?

Junior/amateur squads?

Trialists?

(Btw how often can trialists/unregistered players appear in HL e.g. 3? 4?).

The administrative error – which saw two unregistered Dee players involved in nine infringements across eight Highland League matches – means the Aberdeen side are now rock-bottom of the division on -1 points in their first Highland League campaign.

League rules state clubs receive a mandatory three-point deduction for every match in which an ineligible player is involved.

Same as SPFL sides, I believe. We amended whatever passed for rules re loan/trialists in light of the failed attempt by Inverness to transplant a Colt team into the league at Fort William.

Did you not have a grand bet on them to win the league or was that just banter? If so, my thoughts are with you.

 

A thousand pence.
