A closer look at it all kicking off…
Police commander Chief Inspector Paul Butler said: “Two men were arrested following a fight between opposing fans inside the stadium. The stadium security were quick to act and identify those involved.
“This was a small pocket of away fans within the home stand and in addition to the two arrests we dealt with 16 people for public order offences and they were ejected from the stadium.
“The match was enjoyed by over 14,000 fans and there is no place for violence in football and people should be able to come to watch a match without the fear of violence or aggression and we will continue to work closely with the club to ensure a safe environment for fans to enjoy future games.”
