The Bulls have asked fans travelling to their next two away games to exert a "steadying influence" on their friends and "take some responsibility to ensure their companions stay within the limits of acceptable behaviour".

The club says it is "looking at the possibility of serving a number of fans with 12-month banning orders".

West Mercia Police have been criticised for "significant failings" which contributed to the death of 18-year-old Tyrone Lock from Herefordshire at a Whitchurch golf course last year.

One of the criticisms was that the force weren't able to call on the support of a police helicopter to help search for the teenager when he fled into the night, wearing just a pair of boxer shorts and his socks.

The force has responded by saying: "We acknowledge today's verdict and we will now look to work closely with the National Police Air Service to review future call out procedures."

And it added: "Our thoughts remain with the family and friends of Tyrone following his tragic death."

The father of a Herefordshire teenager found dead on a Shropshire golf course last November has said the police "could have saved his life", but that they "let him down" by not finding him before he died of hypothermia.

Tyrone Lock, from Hope-under-Dinmore, had earlier fled police officers at the Hill Valley Hotel near Whitchurch and his father Jim Lock said "they never acted appropriate, like they should have done".

An inquest found "significant police failings" had contributed to his death.

His mother, Tracey Lock, described him as a "gentleman, loved by everybody" and said the family felt the police should have done more to find him.
