Crawley Town Deduction?

[Gravesendboy86]

On the fleet website in the league table it shows that Crawley Town were deducted 6 points before the start of this season and are bottom with -3 points?

 

Yet on the bbci text and www.footballconference.co.uk it shows that they have not and they are 4th with 3 points?

 

Does anyone know whats going on here?

[Harry J Allstars]

They have been deducted six points and are now on minus 3 after winning today.

 

BBC in error shocker!

[Gravesendboy86]

Not that it makes much difference so early on it was just a bit puzzling that we were the only ones with our table correct.

It may be because Crawley are appealing that some people are delaying putting it in the table?

[Gravesendboy86]

Ah right ok.

 

Cheers for that just couldn't work it out lol.

 

Thought they had been cleared or they had forgotten

[Ian_D]

Well I emailed Football Web Pages (the people who host the tables for both this site and the official one, saying Crawley had been deducted 6 points but are appealing and they changed it straight away, so maybe it's just people dont know. No excuse for the BBC though, they wrote a report on them getting docked points!

[David Holden]

It's always been the case that points deductions are not shown on tables until the deduction has been confirmed.

 

It was the same last year in the Ryman League with AFCW

Way too logical!

Hence Leeds Uniteds' total currently showing as -12 in League One.

Much as this hurts me to say it.

They had them deducted for

a) Having Ken Bates as a Chairman

Just being Leeds and every other club in the Football League getting a chance to put the boot in.

Something about "Chickens coming home to roost?"

how comes its showing differently then is it correct they've been deducted, there waiting for deduction or theyve been cleared?
