Would clubs please read their registration forms. When they sign a player on pre-match the witness is an official of the opposition. Referees are not required
to do this. To check the correct details of players that receive a booking their ID cards are to be presented to the official after the game.
Would Officials please read their Rule Books rather than contact members of the Committee.
9th October, Challenge Cup: Round Green Tavern Reserves v Slip End United. Round Green Tavern Reserves had Marco Thomas dismissed for a second
bookable offence. The player is not registered with the club, they are fined £15 for playing an illegal player He did not appear on the matchcard so a £5 fine
will be imposed. Slip End United were victorious so result to stand.
