Sunderland are in turmoil after it emerged that they played an ineligible player in four Barclays Premier League matches.
Striker Ji Dong-won played against Fulham (August 17), Southampton (August 24), Crystal Palace (August 31) and Manchester United (October 5) before realising he did not have international clearance to play.
Club secretary Liz Coley has been fired by owner Ellis Short after the extraordinary administrative error left Sunderland facing a Premier League investigation.
