Ellan Vannin provisionally expelled from ConIFA

Final decision to be made at AGM

The fallout from Ellan Vannin's objections to a ruling at the ConIFA World Football Cup continues.

The governing body has decided to provisionally expel the Manx side, with a final decision due to be made at its annual general meeting in January next year.

Ellan Vannin withdrew from the tournament earlier this week, in protest at ConIFA's rejection of their appeal about an opposition player - Barawa's Mohamed Bettamer.

ConIFA adjudged his late call-up (to replace another player) to be legitimate.
