Hadnt relaised he had reached 10 yellow cards but got booked at leyton orient on saturday.

Thats a shame, i diddnt realise that

J

Sometimes them lists arnt right well hope so

Isn't there a date round about the end of March where totting up 10 doesn't get you a suspension either?

Does that " suspended automatically" mean he should not have played against Brighton
And if so can we be accused of fielding an ineligible player???????????
That's all we bloody need.

Are we shit-sure that he's got 10?

Plus, don't suspensions under totting up apply after something like 7-10 days later rather than immediately which applies to suspensions for red cards?

I have just checked the official site and they are saying that Turner is toying with the idea of playing the same side. That being the case then surely he is eligible to play tommorrow.
I hope so.

I could read that as saying the two game suspension only applies if he got a one match ban for reaching 5no. yellows before the previous cut off date.

Phew!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sounds promising, except that the Official Site have GL down for only 9 yellows, which suggests we should still be worried a bit?

According to the Mail (I know!!) and comments from Turner, the FA have been in touch with Pools to confirm that Liddle has to miss 2 games, Wycombe and Stockport.

So I guess that's it then.

Probably you're right about Norwich and the interpretation.
But the fact that the Club have him down for only 9 in the 'Sinbin' still spooks me a bit...


ps, oh, right, Oracle.

I have just heard he was suspended on Monday, or should have been.



I believe the phrase ryhmes with 'clucking bell'................


We're going to get 60 points so we'll be alright with the points deduction won't we

And as of Thursday, according to the Club Website, Turner must decide whether to name the same team for a third successive match.

http://www.hartlepoolunited.co.uk/page/ ... 82,00.html

On official site, pools been charged by FA.

its on the official website now. have til the 26th April to respond to the FA charges.

They are notoriously strict when it comes to fielding ineligible players, so i would fully expect a 3 point deduction, which would put us right back in the brown smelly stuff

Gross incompetence, it shouldn't happen to a Sunday morning team.

FFS

I hope they're going to be issuing us with refunds for Mondays game seeing as the whole afternoon was a fooking waste of time

When?

can't find any precedents in the league, but in the FA Cup they just throw the offending team out.

oxford did but they played an ineligible player in several matches as he wasn't registered at the start of the season.

So they're not 'notoriously strict' then really, are they?

Crystal Palace 1 pt end of last season

well they are in the FA cup, so yes

We will get docked at least one point, FACT

I'd imagine it would be 1 point deducted, plus the 3 gained in the game. If it is just a fine, the other clubs in relegation trouble will kick up a fuss. We just have to go and win today and Tuesday...

didn't realise that. Cheers for pointing it out!

As slowdown says, Palace were deducted a point at the end of last season for playing a player who's loan spell had ended.

FFS

Surely it will be at least 3 points we lose? It would make no sense to field an inelegible player, gain 3 points and only get docked 1. We are bound to lose at least 3 points otherwise it would be worth teams fielding inelegible players in key games. Losing the points we won against Brighton is a formality.

TIME FOR THE CLOWN BANNER MR I!!!!!

yep i would agree with that. Mr Loughlin in the Echo suggests its more likely to be a fine, rather than a points deduction, although i can't see it being anything other than a deduction

Nonsense!!!!!! . If he is right then its worth Pools fielding banned players in the remaining key games and gaining more points. The fines are less significant than the points when you are in danger of relegation.

Palace had a point deducted when they drew 0-0 last season so there is every chance we could get the whole 3 taken off us.

I think the fact it was clearly a genuine mistake may work in Pools favour.

Club run like a joke shocker!! This is a disgrace and heads should roll. Sort ur fucking selves out!

And we have to wait until at least 26th April to know for sure what sanction the FA will take with the club.

lets hope!

But surely its ALWAYS a genuine mistake rather than a club deliberately playing a banned player. The other clubs fighting relegation will have something to say if we get anything less than a 3 point deduction.

We are Hartlepool remember not Man U, Chelsea or some london club so we may well get the book thrown at us regardless.

your probably right, lets just hope we go out and get enough points to stay up regardless

We SHOULD still be ok. That prediction thing we did still had us surviving despite my cynicism!!

apparently both Accrington (2007) and Kidderminster Harriers (2005) received fines for fielding ineligible players, and neither received a points deduction.

Not sure on the exact details of how the players were ineligible, but thats potentially a good sign.

We will lose just enough points to relegate us, you watch !!!!

Accrington-

'Stanley were charged with fielding two ineligible players - work experience Preston striker Chris McGrail and young goalkeeper Martin Fearon in games which yielded seven points'

pools contacted the fa to tell them surely that has to be in our favour when they give the punishment out?

surely there should be sackings over this? Club administrators at least? Chief executive? Manager (who is director of sport and as such should know the rules)
What else can they have been thinking about? Playing marbles?
I cannot believe this

Seriously, IOR should be putting people on the dole if we get docked points over this
And I don't give a f-uck who it is - it's their fu-cking job

in fact the cynic in me thinks that Pools WANT to get relegated - so getting points deductions ensures it

So they can finally win the League 2 title, and Turner can finally lead a team to promotion

Not that he will ever be capable of it, but at least he thinks he will try to do it anyway

If they get beat today then there will be real problems if other results go against us

I honestly can't believe this situation, I'm speechless

they figured it out on friday im sure it was first on here on wednesday? they must use the bunker to keep themselves on track

So what's the point of all those obscure paragraphs quoted by Ripper and Mad John? If players are punishable for 10 yellows, whatever the date, why does the FA not just say so?

According to Mark Simpson at the start of the Pools World commentary the club don't get informed officially from the FA of Saturday bookings until the Tuesday so how can clubs be expected to suspend players from the Monday. When players are to be suspended surely there is some obligation on the FA to notify clubs of bookings and pending suspensions. I guess the FA didn't work over Easter and didn't notify us. It could be argued that the FA haven't updated the system to work with the rule change from 7days notice to immediate suspensions. It could be a line of defence. Also if we lose the 3 points from the Brighton game we are doubly penalised if Liddle can't play against Stockport for failings in the systems.

Alternatively we might just be totally incompetent at administartion. What's that IOR rule about not bringing embarrassment to the club?
