The saga of Hapoel Ironi Tiberias's transfer violations is nearing its end, with the Football Association poised to finalize a settlement with the club next week. As part of the agreement, the team will have an additional three points deducted this season. The Association's decision to reduce the penalty from an initial demand for a double-digit point deduction stems from a realization that the original punishment was disproportionate compared to similar cases in other countries. This latest deduction means Tiberias will once again fall below zero points in the standings, unless they secure a victory against Maccabi Netanya on Saturday.
