Fulham are investigating after defender Cyrus Christie claimed his sister was assaulted and racially abused by fans following the Cottagers’ 1-0 defeat at Barnsley.
The Cottagers got their first season back in the Championship off to a disappointing start at Oakwell but Irish international Christie was incensed at the reaction from two as-yet unidentified fans in the away end.
He tweeted his anger at a man who he said hit his sister, before his wife tried to justify his actions with racist language.
