KIDDERMINSTER Harriers have confirmed that it will ban three individuals after a pyrotechnics incident during its FA Cup clash with Solihull Moors.

The club confirmed today (Monday, October 19) that three individuals have been identified as possessing and/or using flares or smoke bombs during the club's 2-1 victory over The Moors in the FA Cup fourth qualifying round on Saturday (October 17).

According to the club, these individuals will be banned from Aggborough Stadium for a 'significant length of time' and now face potential further police or legal action.

A Kidderminster Harriers spokesperson said: "The Club is proud to have an excellent reputation for offering supporters a safe and enjoyable match day experience, and the use of pyrotechnics represents a significant breach of antisocial behaviour.

"Those individuals in question will be banned from Aggborough Stadium for a significant length of time and now face potential further police or legal action.

"We thank all Harriers supporters for continuing to support their team responsibly – those individuals purporting to be 'fans' and acting in an antisocial manner are not welcome."
