Play was stopped on three occasions when flares were thrown from the away end - following chants aimed towards under-pressure boss Valerian Ismael.

And then Baggies fans reported on social media that seats were also ripped out in the away end - as they watched their side slump to a second successive 2-0 defeat on Saturday.

Gates were kept closed around the away end and a heavy police presence guarded both sides of the away stand following full time.
