Jordan Stewart has been suspended from all club activities for two weeks due to a breach of contract.
Registered players of the club are not allowed to play football for any other club. On Saturday 11th July, Stewart did so. The player recognises that he should not have done this. Whilst he remains a key member of our playing staff and recently committed to a long term contract, those contracts exist to protect both the player and clubs rights.
