Whitby Out Of FA Cup After Hot-Tempered Derby

The Blues lost 1-0 against local league rivals Marske United with the score only half the story.

A mass brawl broke out during the game, leading to the sending off of a member of the Marske United bench.

There were also videos on social media showing some unsightly scenes close to the dugout.

In one, a supporter is shown jumping the barrier and coming onto the field after being hit in the head by a can thrown into the crowd by a member of the Marske coaching staff as fans and the coach exchanged missiles.

On the pitch, Adam Wheatley's goal for Marske on 64 minutes proved the difference between the sides, though the home side felt aggrieved feeling there was a foul on Malik Dijksteel in the build-up.

Manager Nathan Haslam spoke to Whitby Town TV post-match:

Whitby's attention will now return to league action, next Saturday at lowly Nantwich, with the task of securing their first victory in the league and trying to climb off the bottom of the Northern Premier League table.
