Greater Manchester Police, issuing an appeal on Wednesday, said supporters 'from both teams' ran onto the pitch at the end of the Rochdale AFC v Spennymoor Town FA Trophy semifinal on April 5. The tie was played at Dale's Crown Oil Arena ground in Spotland.

Police said as well as the pitch invasion after a penalty shootout, disorder took place 'between both sets of supporters inside and outside the ground'.
