  1. FC Vestsjælland was deducted six point for financial irregularities.[18] On 9 December 2015 the club went bankrupt and withdrew from the league, which meant that the remaining games of the club would be made 3-0-victories for the opponent. The professional superstructure was dissolved, but the amateur section of the mother club continued playing in the lower regional levels, Zealand Series, as Slagelse B&I.[19]
