Its only surmise but if in relation to Chris Mcgrail Stanley's only offence was not ensuring that Preston had served the appropriate notice on the FA the Football League Stanley and the player who suffered from this failure, what detriment did they incur?

Is anyone seriously saying that the Football League or the FA would have vetoed the loan had they received formal notice?

To deduct points over such a technicality jeopardising Stanley's position in the Football League only recently resumed after a 44 year absence when there are worse sides - not least Boston and Torquay - would be totally ridiculous.

As to the Wrexham game I don't see how we can have points deducted for keeping our own sub goal keeper on the bench when we are told Leeds were only fined £2000 for keeping an ineligible to play goal keeper on their bench.
