A video shared on social media shows fans clashing in Tib Street. A group can be seen scuffling on the ground, while another man picks up a hoarding, presumably ripped from a shop.

Punches and kicks are then thrown, and one man is attacked by a street sign in the ugly scenes played out in the north west.

Shouts of "come on then" are clearly heard, as a group of around five men continue to advance towards a much larger crowd.
