Perhaps its spelt differently , the way Yankee's written out (5) W-E-T
London Area males request aquatic facility (4,4) S-I-/M-S-

Can anyone explain these clues:
Formula One shunned type of footwear that's formally forbidden - VETOED
British football club having Georgian woman on the board? - QUEEN OF THE SOUTH
Hospital finds accomodation for priest around Spanish city - SALAMANCA

Thank you!!

[bibblebub]

formula One shunned type of footwear = remove F1 from 'five toed'

[bibblebub]

hospital finds accomodation for priest around spanish city:

hospital = SAN
finds accomodation for = put ^ outside of...
priest = LAMA
around = CA

SAlamaN CA

[bibblebub]

london area males request aquatic facility = SWIM MASK

london area = SW1
males = M M
request = ASK

[bibblebub]

QUEEN OF THE SOUTH [British football club]

georgian = OF THE SOUTH [Georgia the state in Southern USA]
woman on the board = QUEEN [chess]

[bibblebub]

1 WHEAT [spelt]

differently = anagram of...
the way yankee's written out = THE WA [i.e. with Y removed]

and the anagram is WHEAT
