The Rugby Football League have deducted points from two National League clubs which recently hit financial difficulties.

Doncaster Lakers, from National League One, and League Two outfit Swinton Lions, are the first clubs to fall foul of the League's clampdown and have both been docked six points after entering into a Company Voluntary Arrangement.

In a statement, the RFL said: "Following a board meeting, the RFL have announced that Doncaster Lakers and Swinton Lions have each been deducted six points for a breach of the RFL's insolvency rules, with immediate effect."

The deduction means Doncaster, who are hoping for new backers to save them from extinction, are now bottom of League One with just three points, three behind Sheffield Eagles.

Swinton, who are confident they have overcome their financial problems, drop from eighth to 10th in League Two and are virtually ruled out of the promotion race.
