Portsmouth Women handed FA points deduction after fielding ineligible player in Women's National League Southern Premier Division meeting with Hounslow
Pompey Women have been hit with a three-point deduction for fielding an ineligible player earlier this season.
The FA have handed the penalty to the Blues after they played an ineligible player in their 3-0 home Women's National League Southern Premier Division victory over Hounslow.
An official FA statement stated: ‘It relates to the fielding of an ineligible player against Hounslow on 24th October 2021.’
The points punishment comes after Jay Sadler's side were removed from last season's Women's FA Cup after fielding an ineligible player in their 2-0 second round victory over Cheltenham in April.
Pompey Women chairman Eric Coleborn insists he is unaware of any ineligible player being fielded in the Hounslow fixture, but said: ‘We've got a board meeting coming up later this week. Anything to do with FA stuff will be brought up then. We'll have a look at it and decide what the situation is.’
