Watford FC supporters were ranked as the seventh best-behaved fans in The Championship last season.

The latest government figures for football related crime show that Watford FC were ranked as the seventh best behaved fans in England’s second division, with 14 arrests made during the 2013/2014 season.

One banning order was imposed on a Watford FC supporter during the 2013-2014 season, which was joint second with AFC Bournemouth and Reading. No banning orders were made at Norwich City.

Officers arrested five people at home matches at Vicarage Road last season while nine were arrested following the team across the country during a campaign which saw The Hornets finish 13.

The data, from the football-related arrests and football banning order statistics, compiled by the Home Office, shows that four Watford FC fans were arrested for violent disorder, three for public disorder, two for pitch incursion and five for alcohol offences.

Brighton and Hove Albion supporters were rated as the best-behaved fans in England’s second division, with five people being arrested during the season.

But Leeds United supporters topped the list of number of arrests with 91 detained, 49 of which were on the Yorkshire team’s travels.

In total, 561 fans were arrested at a Championship game last year, which is down from 621 the previous season.
