Glenavon have been plunged into relegation trouble after having three points deducted for failing to get a work permit for a player from Bolivia.
It means the Lurgan club, only promoted last May, fall below Larne and are only a point ahead of Institute who occupy the one-from-bottom play-off place.
Glenavon played Carlos Alvarez, on loan from Sligo Rovers, in the 3-0 win over Ards in January.
Bottom club Ards have now been awarded the points from that fixture.
It was the only match Alvarez played for Jimmy Brown's team.
Glenavon did make sure they had international clearance to play Alvarez but did not seek a work permit.
