I wonder which pompous male private heads thought that fining a team who have no money the right thing to do.


Disgraceful... I suspect there will be some pending legal action...

I would imagine they have gone hard on Dover to dissuade any other club following Dover's approach...

I just can't see how you can force a club to take on debt, especially as it goes against their own rules about being solvent...

Integrity is a joke in this league. Stick your head in the sand, run up debts and play at all costs is ok. Be sensible and live within your means is punished.

Taking out a loan does not make you insolvent.

According to the powers at NL it does. No loan and you get a fine and points deduction!

Where has anybody said that taking out a loan is insolvent? It's a misconception on here from something the Dover chairman said.

Your correct it doesn't.. but taking out a loan with no income or means to pay it potentially leads to it..

I think you somewhat missed DB’s point PP - he’s saying that Dover refused to take out a loan which would have enabled them to play, as a consequence of which the NL have fined them and deducted points which may well lead them into insolvency

National league clubs are considering whether to bring a vote of no confidence against the league’s board following decision to fine Dover £40,000 and 12 points deduction for 21/22 season for ending their season early.

But as that article says, other clubs in The National League support Dover's punishment. Many clubs have found completing their fixtures almost impossible financially but only Dover have failed to fulfil their fixtures. It's been a hard, horrible time for every club at that level but I think it only fair that Dover be punished although probably with a reduced fine but full twelve point deduction next season.
