DCB In Tight Spot

Former Bull Danny Carey-Bertram has found himself at the centre of a complaint by current side Forest Green Rovers.

The ex-Bulls forward, who left Edgar Street last summer, was asked to leave the field during last Saturday's defeat to Southport because he was wearing 'illegal' clothing. The player was wearing black 'tights' under his black shorts and black socks, which were deemed illegal by referee Peter Quinn.

During the four minutes that it took Carey-Bertram to remove the items, FGR conceded the first goal. FGR claim that the player, and some of his team mates, have worn the same garments in previous matches without complaint and that several high profile players also do the same.

FGR have asked the Conference and FA to clarify the rules.
