Police are hunting football hooligans who set off flares, flashed and assaulted people at a Banbury United match.
Thames Valley Police are investigating disorder at a Banbury United match
The National League North side were facing step three Nuneaton Borough in the FA Trophy on Saturday when the trouble happened.
Thames Valley Police said it wants people to contact them with information after a group walking through the town centre, towards the ground, set off a pyrotechnic at around 2.30pm.
Police said there were a "number of offences" throughout the afternoon, with "flares and pyrotechnics" also set off within the ground, along with reports of an assault and an exposure incident.
In 2022 when Hereford visited Banbury, there were reports of disorder including bottles and a traffic cone allegedly thrown. One person was taken to hospital with injuries, police said at the time.
Then, in September, a meeting was held between the club's board, supporter liaison and police which spoke of "new, constructive relationships and an open dialogue" which had been built after "a number of issues from the past two seasons".
The officers from the local force said how anti-social behaviour is on the up across the UK, at football and other events, especially among younger people.
Club chairman Ronnie Johnson also spoke of the "extreme pressure" the board is under because of "certain fan behaviour", from the police, licensing and council health and safety teams.
PC Alex Locke, dedicated football officer, said after Saturday's game, which Banbury lost 4-2: “We are working with Banbury United to investigate these incidents and identify those involved.
"Our work will continue with Banbury United and the local neighbourhood policing team to ensure Banbury and its football club is a safe and enjoyable place for supporters to come and watch football.
“I am appealing to anyone with information about these offences to contact us by calling 101 or making a report on our website, quoting reference number 43230519566.
He wants anyone with video footage of any of the crimes to get in touch.
People can also report information anonymously through the independent charity Crimestoppers by calling 0800 555 111 or via its website.
