Wycombe keeper Jordan Archer attacked during match

Wycombe goalkeeper Jordon Archer was attacked by a fan during Monday nights match with Gillingham.

Kent Police confirmed a man has been arrested on suspicion of assault following the incident.

Archer, currently on loan from Tottenham, was about to take a goal kick following his booking for time wasting when a supporter entered the field and jumped on top of the 19-year old.

The player did not receive treatment, was not hurt and carried on for the remaining few seconds of the match.  The fan was quickly apprehended by a steward and led away.

After the incident Wycombe manager Gareth Ainsworth said: “There are silly people sometimes at football grounds2

“They give the rest of the Gillingham fans a bad name”

“I know Jordan, he’s a tough lad. I don’t want to comment on it too much but everyone’s OK.”
