Swansea City has said it "strongly condemns" the behaviour of supporters after an incident following the 1-1 draw with Rotherham United on the first day of the Championship season. The clubs are working with South Yorkshire Police to "identify and subsequently punish" those responsible. Rotherham say the fans in question will not be welcome back to their ground.
An incident occurred in the stands after the final whistle involving what both clubs say was a small number of fans from both clubs. Almost 1,500 Swansea fans were part of a crowd of 10,454 in Rotherham.
In its statement, Swansea said: "Swansea City strongly condemns the behaviour of a small number of supporters following today’s Sky Bet Championship clash with Rotherham United. At the conclusion of a game played in a great spirit and a terrific atmosphere, there were instances of unacceptable, unsavoury behaviour involving both Swansea and Rotherham fans in the south-east corner of the AESSEAL New York Stadium.
