Swindon Town chairman Jed McCrory has apologised to Leyton Orient goalkeeper Jamie Jones after one of the club's supporters tried to assault the O's stopper during yesterday's League One match at the County Ground.

McCrory insists the offending fan, who invaded the pitch and aimed three punches at Jones in the second half, will be banned if he is found guilty.

"We will be speaking to the police with reference to their report next week," McCrory told the Swindon Advertiser.

"We don't condone any actions where supporters come on to the pitch and, if found guilty, he will receive a ban.

"We apologise to Jamie Jones, the Leyton Orient board members and their supporters and will review the stewarding around the ground to make sure this doesn't happen again.

"I would also like to mention that overall the Swindon Town fans during my time at the club have been impeccable. We don't want one incident to ruin the club's supporters' reputation for being a fun and well-behaved crowd both home and away."

Leyton Orient boss Russell Slade says the incident was the worst he'd seen in his time as a manager.

The O's won the match 3-1 to go back to the top of League One.
