Day Posted February 26, 2010 Share Posted February 26, 2010 Chester City have been expelled from the Football Conference with immediate effect following a meeting with the member clubs. The Conference received over 75% of the votes required to take action against City after the club had admitted to breaching five Conference rules. The club will now not be able to fulfil any remaining fixtures, beginning with Saturday's clash against Oxford. City, who did not attend the meeting, face a winding-up order on 10 March. A statement on the Conference website read: "Member clubs of the Football Conference voted in support of the board of directors' recommendation to erase Chester City (2004) FC Ltd from membership in accordance with Article 5.2." http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/c/chester/8538236.stm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
