GLASGOW Clan have suspended their chief executive and head coach after the aborted signing of a player who was accused of rape.
The ice hockey team announced the signing of Finnish defender Lasse Uusivirta on Thursday but backed out of the deal later that day with a brief statement on Twitter.
Chairman Neil Black released a further statement on Friday which read: “At 19.45 last night, I was made aware for the first time of a major situation which merits further internal investigation and this has led to the immediate suspension of both the Clan chief executive Gareth Chalmers & the Clan head coach Malcolm Cameron.”
