Here's interesting facts from a mate in Wellington and how Capital Football run it.
Capital Football do not check cards, trouble only ensues if an opponent complains or (in the most recent case) the player gets booked. Wairarapa will lose their one point they earned when they drew with Wests as their player was booked and it turned out he wasn't legal.
Teams have 7 days to complain, and the punishment is not backdated. Hence they lost 1 point not all of them. And they certainly don't get an extra 3 points deducted to rub it in.
Thoughts for Uni to mention in the appeal.
