Only heard via others that it's to do with South Shields fielding an ineligible player and others being guilty of the same offense. I heard Chester came clean as soon as they realised and there's a possibility that all teams will have points deducted where ineligible players were playing. If this were the case then I'm lead to believe that Newcastle and Chester would finish 3rd and and 2nd bottom respectively with Stockton taking the drop and Shields in effect surviving.
I'm sure this has legs though but will have to be settled sooner rather than later. Should be a canny meeting the next one that's for sure.

If someone has played an ineligible player then fair enough, they should be punished IMO. Rules are there for all to see and ignorance shouldn't be an excuse. I just hope it genuinely is independent to ensure the so called "big clubs" don't get this swept under the carpet.
My club in Yorkshire had the same thing happen a couple of years ago. When we found out we went to the League. We were 3rd (?) in the top Division. We lost all points we gained when we played the overseas and were relegated. Other clubs had done the same and were penalised the same. We accepted the punishment but we were promoted back the following year.
Which players are they concerned about?Washington could get relegated to Durham League if they deduct points and award the games against their opponents
Needs sorting asap as it's unfair on all involved. Personally should leave things as they are a lesson learnt but I can understand why clubs fell hard done by
