On 19 April, with four games remaining and occupying the bottom position with 17 points, the club incurred a penalty of 18 points – the most severe sanction of its kind in Dutch history – due to consistent violations of licensing regulations and furnishing inaccurate information to investigative bodies. Consequently, their demotion was officially confirmed.[1]
