A TOTAL of 11 arrests were made by police during Plymouth Argyle's Devon derby with Exeter City on Saturday.
Officers from Devon and Cornwall Police took the fans into custody for a variety of offences in relation to the derby game.
Chief Inspector Richard Hooper-Bennett said: "Overall for a crowd of about 8,000 people this is a very small number of people that have been arrested. I would like to thank the vast majority of fans who have enjoyed a Devon Derby played in the sunshine."
It had earlier been reported that some coaches carrying away supporters were delayed from entering Exeter because of 'police problems' in the city.
About 8,000 fans attended the match at St James's Park, which saw the home team secure a dramatic 2-1 injury-time win against their local rivals.
About 150 officers, including a unit on horses, took the city's streets in an effort to keep order.
Police said that those held for football related disorder were at risk of having banning orders applied to them in addition to any court punishments.
