"As a club we were totally oblivious of the situation until the league informed us and the player was also unaware of any issues.

"As stated by the league the situation is complicated by the fact that there are numerous county FAs involved.

"It was unfortunate the matter was not able to be sorted by the last game of the season but the players were aware of the situation and prepared in a professional manner and performed magnificently on Saturday."
