Defender Sido Jombati will complete a three-match retrospective ban from Ebbsfleet’s New Year’s Day defeat at Dartford this weekend.

The centre-back was charged by the FA with a breach of rule E3.1. Jombati admitted the charge and was handed a three-game ban.

Footage emerged on social media after the game showing an off the ball incident involving Jombati and Dartford striker Alex Wall.

The charge said: “It is alleged that in or around the 20th minute of the fixture, as evidenced in the video clip, Mr Jombati’s behaviour constitutes violent conduct.” Ebbsfleet boss Dennis Kutrieb confirmed the suspension, which has seen Jombati sit out the home wins over Concord and Havant.

Kenya's legendary world 800m record holder and double Olympic champion David Rudisha has come to New Delhi to inspire a host of Indian marathon and long distance runners. The simplicity of the genius Rudisha is awe-inspiring. Speaking at the pre-marathon press conference, Kenya's legendary middle-distance runner pointed out that this was the last opportunity and platform for India's top marathoners to win their berths for the Hangzhou Games in September. "The weather is perfect. I believe the flat course is also ideal for a marathon. So, remain confident, don't lose sight of your targets, and give it your all," he said. "The marathon is a very special race, the oldest sport in the world," he said, admiring the sport that requires extreme resilience and endurance. "I can imagine how tough running 42 kilometre is. My event lasts just 1 minute and 40 seconds," Rudisha, who is the only athlete to ever run the 800m in 1 minute and 41 seconds, added, amidst thunderous applause.
