You can't expect much from the FA really, earlier this season when Hapoel Tel Aviv did the same with Abutbul the FA said it was their own mistake so Hapoel got away with no punishment. What happened now is that the FA claims they sent two faxes that day, one with the names of Nimni and Melikson and another one, updated, including Banin's name later that day. But Beitar said they never recieved the second fax, besides why couldn't the FA just phone our management and let them know of the second fax since they obviously fixed a mistake they did. It's ridiculous really, I don't think they would've deducted any points for us if it these points were important. It's not like we were going to play in the UEFA Cup with this point (at least in my opinion) and not like Hapoel Haifa will remain in the league with the extra two points.
The IFA are a bunch of fools who are less clueless then a 5 year old boy, I wouldn't let them run a humus stand let alone an FA. But that's what happens when your government doesn't give a damn about football.
