A second MP has questioned the fairness of the Bulls being deducted three points for playing an ineligible player.
Damian Collins, MP for Folkstone and Hythe, went to school at Belmont Abbey - the Bulls' old training grounds - and sits on the Parliamentary committee that is investigating football governance at the moment.
In a letter to the Football League's Chief Operating Officer Andy Williams he wrote: "I would be interested to learn of the Football League's reasoning in docking three points from Hereford United but only one point from Torquay United for the same offence committed during the same match.
"Should not the penalty have been equal for both teams? It also seems to be a particularly significant issue for Hereford, as they may be relegated as a result. This seems to be a harsh and disproportionate penalty in the circumstances."
According to PA Sport, Collins added that as the Football League had already given evidence to the committee's inquiry into football governance he would not have an opportunity to ask them about the issue in person:
"This seems to be a genuine oversight by Hereford but if sanctions are to be imposed then surely they should at least be consistent. There seems no reason for Hereford to be docked three points and Torquay only one for the same offence."
