The club issued a statement after the pyrotechnic devices were thrown on to the field of play during the 4-0 victory at the Pirelli Stadium on Saturday.

The club said it is likely to ‘face disciplinary action’ after the fans’ behaviour.

A statement said: “As a club, we have a zero-tolerance policy to the possession and/or use of all pyrotechnic devices and will issue bans to anyone found responsible.”

They urged anyone who could help the investigation to contact the club directly in a confidential way, and they said they will be ‘assisting’ Burton police to identify the supporters who are responsible.
