Sheffield Wednesday manager Dave Jones has called on fans to "police their own" in the wake of goalkeeper Chris Kirkland being attacked by a Leeds fan during Friday night's Yorkshire derby at Hillsborough.

Kirkland was shoved to the ground by a supporter following Michael Tonge's 76th-minute equaliser for Neil Warnock's men. The suspect has been identified by the police but has yet to be arrested while the Football Association confirmed it is investigating the incident.

Jones, who was also the subject of vicious chanting from some Leeds fans, told Five Live Sportsweek: "In this country we seem to end up going with the minority all the time and it's going to take the majority to sort it out and you've got to police your own clubs."
