A man and a Police officer needed hospital treatment after around 100 people were involved in the trouble in the car park of the Community Football Ground on January the 28th, following Harborough’s 1-0 win.

Officers say those questioned have been released on bail pending further enquiries and further arrests are likely, as they continue to study video footage from the incident.

Both clubs have said any fan identified as being involved will be banned from attending all games.
