Consequently,
the Second Qualifying Round game away to Kingstonian on Sunday will not go
ahead as planned.
The
charge (Rule 15 i III) relates to fielding a player in an FA Cup game when he
doesn’t hold the appropriate international clearance.
The
player this relates to is Frankie Hession-Harris, who appeared as a second half
substitute in the Preliminary Round win against Heybridge Swifts on 24th August.
He
has since left the club and signed for Isthmian Premier side Merstham.
Despite
Hession-Harris representing both Witham Town and East Thurrock United in season
2018/19, it transpires that he was never internationally cleared to play
football back in England after representing a college team in the USA. |
