“The matter is now closed.”

If that is the case, I don't see need for points deduction. Looks more like a case of too complicated a system, where one bit wasn't updated.
Given FA, that wouldn't surprise me, I think all the football organisations have their head up their ass (can I say ass?, or is posterior better)
