Sidley United have accused Lingfield of fielding a banned player under an assumed name in last weekend’s game.

The Blues claim that the Lingfield player listed as Josh Smith on the teamsheet for the Sussex County Football League Division One match was, in fact, Kai Bichard.

Sidley notified league registrations secretary Tim Dawes by telephone after the fixture and put their complaint in writing on Tuesday morning.
