I am refereeing a game on the 25th Jan and I know a player who plays for one of the teams and he is currently serving a 5 match ban and he will be unavailable. Now the type of person he is and the team he plays for he will no doubt in my mind attempt to play. I have spoken with my local RAS expressing my concerns if he attempts to play and he said do not try to prevent him from playing (I already knew that one ) and do not report that he has played unless I caution him so basically if I don't caution him during the game I don't report he has played while serving a suspension ?. My local Sunday leagues don't provide team sheets either prior to games so cant check against that , any suggestions / advice would be most grateful.
