A Hereford supporter was escorted out of the Len Weston Terrace this afternoon.
The game was held out for several minutes in the second half after there were allegations about his behaviour.
The club has released a statement:
Hereford FC can confirm that an allegation of a supporter making homophobic comments towards a Darlington player during today’s game has been received.
We have immediately launched a full investigation and will work alongside West Mercia Police and Darlington FC to establish what happened, and we are therefore appealing for witnesses to come forward with information of today’s incident.
If you were witness, please email Hereford FC General Manager, Jamie Griffiths jgriffiths@herefordfc.co.uk with details. Information received will be dealt with in the strictest confidence.
Hereford FC will not tolerate any form of homophobic abuse and anyone found guilty of using such language will be banned from Edgar Street.
