Trinity in Risk of Losing Their Win

On saturday, seeded Trinity played the new-comer New Venture in the 2nd match.
The match ended on Trinity side 3-1.
However, club committees had dissatisfaction with Trinity's approach to that match in term of team discipline. The committee on duty had recorded some of the team's miscooperation and they are listed below:
1- Player list. Trinity submitted the player list without substitution players listed in it.
2- Sub form. As the standard of the league since last season, substitution to be made must go through committee on duty at the grand stand. However, Trinity made few changes at half-time without reporting to the organiser. This is actually a very serious misconduct as it troubled the committee to keep track on the players, cards, and goalscorers.
3- Team location. Trinity players were found gathered at the other side of the field, while all other teams as well as suppoprters were at the grand stand. Teams MUST be at the grand stand when the match is going on, and supporters are advised to be there too.
4- Long socks and shin pad. Some of Trinity players were recorded using short socks, and some without shin pad. There were some arguement about this when we tried to inform them about this issue after the match. Trinity claimed New Venture didnot use longsocks and shin pad too, but as recorded, only ONE New Venture player did this, compare to SOME from their side.

Trinity however on that day agreed to change their attitude to the game in future, and a verbal agreement made that if they did not improve in the next game in term of those factors, they'll get point deduction.
From the weekly meeting, the club committees had come to some decision about this matter. The verbal agreement is used, with 2 points deduction will be imposed if Trinity failed to fulfill their promises. The deduction will not effect the game's scoreline - Trinity won 3-1.
This incident should be an example to other teams also. Please follow all the rules, and cooperate. Thank you.
