Why did you apply so late? You really dont have a chance this year and it may also disqualify you for next year. Its better to apply in 4th week. 3rd week disqualifies you even for the next match. Sorry about that.

@tacrolimus...
i should have taken your advise.. what to do bad luck. Looks like this bad luck of this year going to bit me next year as well. so i dont have chance for 2010 as well so i have to look for 2011 match. I have one doubt do the PD remember me if i apply next year or eras would not allow me to apply next year

What is the point of having last dates of application if you can't apply late, right? It would also depend on your credentials, I guess... These are my own opinion though, not a pro on matching...

don't give false info saying he won't be able to apply even next year. you can apply as long as you meet the program deadlines, chances are you may not get an interview
