Nottingham Forest are working with the police to identify fans who are believed to have directed homophobic abuse at Brighton players and supporters on Saturday.
The behaviour under investigation took place during the 3-2 victory for 10-man Brighton, who had Lewis Dunk sent off late in the second half at the City Ground.
Forest condemned the alleged conduct and assured there would be consequences for those involved. A statement on the club’s official account on X, formerly Twitter, read: “Following Saturday’s Premier League fixture against Brighton and Hove Albion, we were have been made aware of some homophobic language aimed towards Brighton players and supporters from a minority of our fans.
“We would like to thank all our supporters who reported incidents. Nottingham Forest is committed to creating an inclusive environment which embraces and celebrates our differences. We want everyone who attends our stadium to have a positive experience.”
