A team who secured a trophy to help them qualify for European competition next season have been barred from competing after having an appeal rejected.
The team in question failed to win their appeal against the Court of Arbitration for Sport (Cas) due to dual-ownership rules.
Irish Premier Division side Drogheda United were forbidden from competing in next season's Conference League after Danish side Silkeborg qualified - with both teams being owned by the US-based Trivela Group.
As Drogheda are the lower-ranked team of the two having finished ninth in the League of Ireland Premier Division while Silkeborg were seventh in Denmark's top tier, UEFA rules mean the Irish outfit will be excluded.
