After playing 39 games Lancaster City of the Football Conference North have 0 points. This isn't because they have lost every game, infact they have won 3 games, but the fact that they entered into administration in December and by FA rules they had 10 points deducted.

Sitting 41 points behind second-bottom Scarborough relegation was confirmed last month, their aim now is to get off 0 points in their remaining 3 games.

Do you agree with the FA's decision to dock clubs 10 points for entering administration or do you feel that the punishment is rather harsh and causes the club further problems?

This case isn't just restricted to Lancaster City though as Rotherham United who entered administration in the summer have just been relegated from League One.
