claret&blue Posted February 15 Report Share Posted February 15 Is there any reason why teams that fail to fulfil fixtures in the St Pirans league are not deducted points? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baldy Posted February 15 Report Share Posted February 15 There are plenty of examples of adjustments. There may be a time delay as each case may be analysed separately for overriding circumstances? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

claret&blue Posted February 15 Author Report Share Posted February 15 Just saw a couple of walkovers in the D2 east, one from September so just wondered what the ruling was as it can obviously affect teams going for promotion or trying avoid relegation .

Steve Carpenter Posted February 15 Report Share Posted February 15 Clubs can be and are being deducted points. A stepped approach is taken with incremental increases in the penalties applied on each occasion. This starts with the game being awarded and half the maximum fine for the first occasion up to a maximum deduction of 12 points (plus fine) the 6th time a team fails to fulfill a match.

The fines for failing to fulfill a fixture are £25 then £50 for each game after that. The fine for withdrawal is £100. Luke Gibbons 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Git Posted May 18 Report Share Posted May 18 I see St Merryn handed Pensilva the title in Div 2 East, I believe this is there 4 or even 5th walk over. Hate to see teams struggle for sides. I do recollect a team I watched on a few occasions, Tintagel, expelled from the Duchy League after 3 failed attempts to raise a team, all results nul and Void with games left to play, which in turn lead to the club folding,is this not the rule in the St Pirans League? Answers on a postcard please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Answers on a postcard please. No it's not. It's not inthe FA Standard Code Of Rules nor is it a 'local rule' that has been adopted. It's not one that would be sanctioned by Cornwall FA and I don't think it was actually written in the Duchy rules either. It's certainly not in the copy I have from last season.
