    Sunderland are in turmoil after it emerged that they played an ineligible player in four Barclays Premier League matches.

    Striker Ji Dong-won played against Fulham (August 17), Southampton (August 24), Crystal Palace (August 31) and Manchester United (October 5) before realising he did not have international clearance to play.

    Club secretary Liz Coley has been fired by owner Ellis Short after the extraordinary administrative error left Sunderland facing a Premier League investigation.

    The South Korea striker, who joined Sunderland in 2011, was sent out on loan to German club Augsburg last season.
    When he returned Sunderland had to wait for international clearance before he could play for them again, but they never got it.
    Instead former manager Paolo di Canio selected him for the four fixtures and the mistake was not spotted until they had lost 2-1 at home to Manchester United on Saturday October 5.
    Sunderland immediately confessed and were fined under-radar by the Premier League board in December.
    Although it is understood that the fine is substantial, fellow relegation strugglers will believe that the integrity of the Premier League has been questioned.
    According to the official Premier League handbook, rule B14. states 'membership of the League shall constitute an agreement between the League and clubs and (comply) with B.14.5: the statutes and regulations of FIFA;'
    Rule U11 applies to international registration and transfer certificates, which states:
    'U.11. An application to register a player who last played for a club affiliated to a national association other than the Football Association shall be accompanied by written confirmation from the Football Association that an international registration transfer certificate has been issued in respect of the player.'

    I stand to be corrected but i think we could start next season with a points deduction

    However

    If we have already been fined then its been dealt with and the end of the matter

    We were already punished and fined in December by all accounts, a points deduction is out of the question, thankfully
