AFC Wimbledon have been deducted three points by the Football League for fielding an ineligible player.
The League Two club were charged last week for Jake Nicholson's appearance on March 22 in a league game against Cheltenham Town.
The former Tottenham Hotspur trainee, 21, made his one and only appearance for Wimbledon in that game, scoring their second goal in a 4-3 victory.
It was announced this afternoon that Wimbledon would be deducted three points, fined £5,000, suspended until the end of the 2014/15 season, and have to pay the costs of the hearing.
A three-point deduction sees the club drop from 14th to 18th, but they'll still be safe from relegation with just one game of the season left.
