- The decision can be appealed to the SFL Appeals Court within five days.
The Challenge League club from Ticino had eight instead of the permitted seven non-locally trained players on the match sheet for the season opener against Wil. The individual judge of the disciplinary commission therefore converted Bellinzona's 2:1 victory into a 0:3 defeat.
The decision can be appealed within five days to the SFL Appeals Court. The adjustments to the table will only be made after the appeal period has expired.
