Nottinghamshire Police are investigating reports of homophobic abuse at a Nottingham Forest match last month.

They want to identify three male fans who were at the home fixture against Brighton Albion on Saturday 25th November.

Dedicated football officer PC Simon Travell said: “We are liaising with Nottingham Forest Football Club and working hard to gather evidence and identify those responsible for this unacceptable behaviour.

“We will not tolerate hate in any of its forms and we continue to work hard to tackle it, with the support of our partner agencies across the county.

“To help us with our ongoing inquiries I’d encourage anyone who recognises any of the men pictured in these images to please get in contact with us.”
