during the Sky Bet League Two match between Exeter City and Northampton Town at St James Park on January 10, 2015 in Exeter, England.

Exeter City has banned two supporters indefinitely from games at St James Park following social media abuse directed at both a former player and manager.

A club statement said: "Exeter City takes a zero-tolerance approach to all forms of abuse, both at the ground and online, especially those of a discriminatory or racist nature.

"The posts, made on Twitter and Facebook, fall well below the standard we expect from our supporters and have been reported to Kick It Out and the police.
