A Bradford City supporter has been suspended indefinitely pending a police investigation into an alleged racially-aggravated public order offence.

The League Two side said the supporter had been ejected from Valley Parade after reportedly "directing racist remarks towards the field".

The club said the matter was "now in the hands of the police".

In a statement, it added: "Bradford City AFC does not tolerate racism, or any form of discrimination."

West Yorkshire Police said a 54-year-old man had been arrested in connection with the incident and was released under investigation.
