Northumbria Police have released more CCTV pictures of people they want to speak to in relation to the violence in Newcastle after the Tyne-Wear derby.
"I'd like to thank the public again for their continued help in providing information to us about those involved in the disturbance last Sunday."I'd also like to reiterate that anyone involved in football-related disorder are very much in the minority, and damage the reputation of true football fans and the people of Newcastle."
18 people have been arrested on suspicion of violent disorder since last Monday, this brings the total number of derby related arrests to 47. Police are urging anyone who recognises someone in the photos to contact them on 101.
Police have released a breakdown of those arrested before, during and after Sunday's derby match as they continue to appeal for information.
Newcastle United have released a statement saying they are "embarrassed and appalled" by the behaviour of fans who clashed with police.
A police horse seen being punched by a football fan is "safe and well" this morning, its police force said.
