Lynn player/boss Carl Heggs was sent off in tonight's Unibond Premier Division defeat at the Silverlands.
Heggs was dismissed ten minutes after the interval for a second yellow card following an innocuous trip inside the Buxton box on Steve Ridley - one of seven Lynn players cautioned to trigger an automatic fine.

Lynn also included Rushden loan signing Bobby Aisien at centre-half after Heggs confirmed he had released Craig McAughtrie and midfielder Jamie Oliver in the wake of the club's cup exit.

Gavin Knight pounced to nudge the Bucks in front but Joe Magunda scrambled home a messy equaliser in first half stoppage time.
Lynn looked comfortable even after Heggs' dismissal until Aisien tried to swivel inside his own six yard box but ran straight into Kieran Lugsden who lashed past Danny Gay.
