Colchester United's fantastic win on Saturday was marred by a couple of incidents that Essex police are now investigating.
Following incidents at the game, Essex Police are investigating a report of assault on a Colchester United player and an allegation of racial abuse by an away supporter outside the stadium following the game.
The two clubs will assist Essex Police in the investigations, and will not comment further until these investigations have been completed.
Colchester United would like to make it clear that we will not tolerate any abuse, verbal or physical, and we will push for the strongest sanctions possible on any person found guilty of either.
