A football club has suspended the playing of the Dambusters March and the use of an Air Raid siren at matches while The War in Ukraine continues.
Traditionally, the famous World War Two film theme had been played before each Lincoln City Home Game , while The Siren was sounded ahead of corner kicks.

'Challenging matter'Lincoln City FC chief executive Liam Scully said The Club wanted to strike an appropriate balance between its " long-standing synonymous gestures and actions".
