The medical emergency led to a long stoppage in play at Salford City FC v Rochdale AFC
A football supporter collapsed and suffered a seizure after a pyrotechnic flare was let off by her fellow fans in the away end during a game.
She was taken away for medical treatment, but has since posted on social media to thank all those who helped her and confirm she's 'feeling much better'. In a statement, the club said: "Salford City wishes to remind supporters that the use of smoke bombs and pyrotechnic devices at football stadia is a criminal offence, and reiterate our commitment to the safety of supporters at The Peninsula Stadium.
"Pyrotechnic devices are dangerous, and the use of them is illegal. Any supporter found in possession of or using such devices will face both a stadium ban and prosecution.
