Palace manager Patrick Vieira was also involved in an altercation with a fan when he was walking towards the away dressing room after the final whistle. "Football stadiums should always be a safe and enjoyable space for everyone, and these incidents are completely unacceptable and have no place in our game.

"The FA will be seeking to do all that it can to work with clubs as well as addressing the issues from a disciplinary perspective," the statement added. Nottinghamshire Police said that a man had been arrested and interviewed on suspicion of assault as part of an investigation into video footage showing an incident during Tuesday's Championship playoff semi-final between Nottingham Forest and Sheffield United.
