Colliers B ladies have been told they have been thrown out of Cheslyn Hay women's league, near Cannock, Staffs, because of the language they used during matches.

But the players suspect it is because some opponents have complained about teammate Melanie Partlow, who used to be a man.

The Sun reported Ms Partlow joined the side two years ago after an operation turned her from a married forklift truck driver called Mick.
