Uefa conference league: Reports of sectarian singing at match

After the game, there were complaints on social media about the behaviour of some Shamrock Rovers fans, with chants about the IRA and the death of Queen Elizabeth II.

PSNI Ch Insp Mark Conway said: “The vast majority of supporters attending the match enjoyed the game and it was generally a peaceful match.

“However, a small minority who chose to engage in criminal activity are ruining the experience for other football fans, as well as causing disruption to the local community.

“Our enquiries are ongoing into potential offences. I would encourage anyone with any information about these incidents to contact police on 101.”

There has been no comment from Larne FC.

A spokesperson for Shamrock Rovers said the club condemns any form of bigotry and discrimination in football.

“The club’s policy in this regard is long-standing, is stated on the official club website and is also announced on the PA system in advance of every home game at Tallaght Stadium,” said the spokesperson.

There has been no comment yet from UEFA, which organises the Europa Conference League.
