Play was held up for five minutes in the Endsleigh League Second Division match at Bournemouth yesterday when 70 Brighton fans invaded the pitch to protest about their club's poor form. Several arrests were made and one fan was carried from the field on a stretcher. Brighton lost 3-1.

The Huddersfield manager, Brian Horton, will be reported to the Football Association for "foul and abusive language" to a linesman during yesterday's 2-1 First Division home defeat against Sheffield United.
