What do you expect?

Fooyaregoo, King's Lynn were disqualified from the FA Cup the week before a home game where they were expecting a 3000+ crowd. This at a time when they were in dire financial straits.
Their crime? A player had been sent off in a pre-season five-a-side tournament for an amatuer club and he hadn't told King's Lynn.

The FA are absolute w**kers. One of the reasons they gave for not docking West Ham points was that it wasn't the fans fault. Another was that it was a bit late in the season. You couldn't make it up.
