Following the incidents inside and outside of Hillsborough, fans took to social media to slam the bottle and coin throwers…
What do you gain from throwing things at football players? Football should be fun, not dangerous. Shameful behaviour from the support ? #SWFC

coins or bottles beyond thrown at players… Lifetime bans for anyone found to be doing that. Disgraceful behaviour. What goes through the mind of someone to think that is a good idea?! #SWFC #SUFC

Bottles and coins being thrown at players. Other objects being launched over barriers outside the ground. All for banter and a rivalry, but not when lines are crossed. If you're an imbecile that associates themselves with either club, stay away in the future. #sufc #twitterblades

Coins getting thrown at O’Connell, classy bunch.

Stay classy Wendy fans, sixty seconds in and they're throwing coins at Jack O'Connell.

4 minutes into the Sheffield Derby and already a beer bottle and a coin thrown towards players. How do people get that worked up about sport.

Others spoke of what happened nearby the ground, with some criticising the police…
All kicked off outside away end, they let both sets of fans come out together with no segregation

What an absolute shambles from @syptweet. It was like a warzone outside Leppings Lane. Had to squeeze through the coaches to stop from getting pelted with coins, smacked by a moron, or trampled by horses.
Easier to police on a Monday night? Yeah right! #swfc #twitterblades

Been attending #swfc for over 15 years and never felt unsafe at a match regardless of opponent but what @syptweet did tonight was utterly disgraceful. Hey endangered human safety. Appalling!

Thank you! Are you serious? Whoever organised that shambles at the leppings lane end after the game should be out of work tomorrow. They put men women and kids at risk with that bottleneck. Utterly shambollick!
