Millwall FC bosses in vow to ban violent yobs

Millwall fans were condemned tonight after crowd violence marred the FA Cup semi-final at Wembley.

During the second half of their 2-0 defeat by Wigan, around 20 Millwall fans began fighting with each other behind the goal in disturbing scenes which left youngsters in tears and were witnessed by millions on television.

The club has vowed to find the yobs.

Our position is clear. Anyone associated with our club found guilty of violent behaviour will be banned indefinitely from Millwall matches in addition to any punishment they receive from the authorities.

– Millwall chief executive Andy Ambler

Chairman John Berylson, who flew in from the United States for the game, said: "There are always a few idiots. That's not our fan-base and we don't even know who those people are. We will be investigating."

Lions manager Kenny Jackett said: "I haven't seen it on TV yet but it doesn't sound good"
