Newcastle United Accuse Fans Of Lack Of Respect
Hundreds of Newcastle fans disrupted an amateur football match when coaches arrived at Wigan on Sunday.
Newcastle United have now released an official statement regarding their behaviour;
Newcastle United are very disappointed with the behaviour of a minority of its fans who were involved in the vandalism of equipment belonging to Wigan Cosmos Football Club and pitch incursions during their game against AFC Leigh Centurions on 17 March which caused the match to be stopped.
Our travelling fans have a very good reputation, but the actions of a minority on this occasion were wholly unacceptable.
Football, at all levels of the game, deserves the same degree of respect whether it is played in the Premier League or at the grassroots level. We were sorry to learn that this South Lancashire Counties Premier Division game was disrupted in this manner and we would urge anyone who witnessed this incident to contact Greater Manchester Police.
