Jersey Bulls topped the table on goal difference, ahead of second-placed Redhill [BBC]
The Combined Counties League Premier South promotion play-offs have been postponed while Jersey Bulls' appeal against a points deduction is heard.
The island side finished the season top of the table, but have had three points docked for fielding a player who should have been suspended.
Toby Ritzema had passed the threshold for a suspension after picking up too many yellow cards but played in the 4-0 win over Tooting and Mitcham United on 20 March.
Should the Bulls appeal fail they will drop to third place in the table.
The play-offs were due to begin on Saturday 26 April between the sides finishing second to fifth, with the winners gaining promotion to the eighth tier of English football.
"The judicial process impacting the playoff positions has not completed and until it has these matches will be on hold," A statement from the Combined Counties League read.
"The league will provide an update when the situation has progressed to an appropriate stage."
When Jersey Bulls were docked points last week the club said there was "significant mitigation" that was "based on the lack of clarity on the number of yellow cards".
