HADDINGTON ATHLETIC POINTS

Our recent 4-1 defeat at home to Haddington Athletic was disappointing , but it has been found that they had played an unillegible player  and  subsequently they have been docked the three points they won that day and the scoreline deleted from the official records , with a 1-0 win and three points awarded to Broxburn Athletic as per league rules . There was no suggestion that Haddington tried to gain an advantage but was a genuine mistake .
