AFC Wimbledon will not be appealing against their three-point deduction for playing an ineligible player last month.
The Dons selected Jake Nicholson in the matchday squad for their League Two clash with Cheltenham on March 22 and he came on as a substitute at half-time, scoring as they went on to win 4-3.
Following a football disciplinary commission on Monday, they were docked three points and fined £5,000, suspended until the end of next season.
The deduction sees Neal Ardley’s side drop from 14th to 18th in the table but they are not in danger of relegation with only one game to play.
Earlier this month, Sunderland were fined for fielding an ineligible player for four games but were not deducted points.
And it seems that once again there is one rule for the Premier League and another for everyone else.
