Footage emerges of some Leeds fans being removed by stewards after being caught in the Plymouth home end on Saturday afternoon.
The incident is said to have taken place in the last 10 minutes of the game, being removed from the Plymouth end behind the goal, with tensions then escalating after Leeds’ winning goal.
Daniel Farke’s side, who had already won promotion to the Premier League, ended the 2024-25 season as Championship title winners, while Plymouth’s relegation was confirmed.

Plymouth’s Miron Muslic, said after the game, per Sky Sports:
“I am proud, very proud. We faced today by far the best team in our division and gave another good performance.
“It showed good spirit and character of the lads yet again even though we are relegated. We are Plymouth Argyle, we play for the Green Army.
“We simply went all in and wanted to produce another memorable performance. We came 120 seconds from getting something against the best team in our league.
“Congratulations to Daniel Farke and Leeds for an outstanding performance throughout the season and winning the league.”
On Burnley’s near miss, Farke added: “I want to send my congratulations to Burnley, to Scott (Parker), I think they have done a fantastic job.
“Unbelievable with (100) points won. They have played a fantastic season that deserves to be crowned with some silverware.”
Leeds’ Daniel Farke:
“I was too tired to celebrate even at the final whistle because I was so focused on winning promotion. I really wanted to win this match and win the title for everyone at the club.
“Of course, I’m happy that we won this game in the final stages and are officially allowed to label ourselves as champions and be the best team during the whole season.
“It’s a proud day and an emotionally moving day because we have invested so much and wanted to crown ourselves with some silverware. I’ve had this experience only a few times but for some of them it was the first time they have won any title.
“It feels pretty special in the dressing room and I’m very happy for my players and all my staff, it means so much for them, and also our supporters.
“It’s a proud day for everyone who is connected to Leeds United Football Club. mWe had a bit of a difficult first half because we did not move the ball quickly enough.
“We looked a bit as though we had celebrated too much in the last week since winning promotion. We played a Plymouth side who have had a really good turnaround and won three of the last four.
“Yes, they were relegated but it showed they wanted to take a really good experience from today into their summer break so for that reason it was difficult.”
