Two Brighton fans and a Chelsea supporter have been arrested for alleged "unacceptable abuse" during Wednesday's 1-1 draw at Amex Stadium. One home fan was ejected for suspected racist abuse of Chelsea players, while the other aimed alleged homophobic abuse at Chelsea supporters. The Chelsea fan was thrown out for alleged homophobic abuse of home fans. Brighton say all three were arrested by Sussex police outside the stadium and "now face prosecution". Incidents of racism have marred a number of Premier League games this season, while there were also incidents of alleged homophobia in three games last month, including a Brighton match.
