Conference To Give Alty Verdict Tomorrow

The Conference hearing into the charges brought against Altrincham for fielding an ineligible player will be held in Burton tomorrow.

Should the Conference find Alty guilty the club can appeal to the FA, who have already cleared them of any wrongdoing once. The FA initially investigated the case, where midfielder James Robinson played for Accrington reserves before joining Alty, and charged Accrington, but not Alty, after Robinson allegedly failed to disclose a spell playing in Iceland.

Meanwhile, Accrington are to be expelled from their reserve league after finding themselves having to play 11 games in two weeks in order to finish the season. Accrington have struggled to raise a reserve side all season, and have used 71 players in their 20 reserve matches including manager John Coleman.
