Birmingham City fans clashed with stewards after their relegation to League One was sealed despite a 1-0 win against Norwich.

Paik Seung-ho netted in a second-half goal to give the club a glimmer of hope in their bid to escape the drop on the final day of the season.

However, going into Saturday's clash Birmingham had to rely on Plymouth dropping points against play-off chasing Hull but a 1-0 win for the Pilgrims at Home Park sealed the club's fate.

Discontent among the fanbase has been growing throughout the campaign and supporters made their feelings clear at the full-time whistle as boos rang out across St Andrews.

Some fans then made their way onto the pitch leading to ugly scenes as stewards intervened to restore order.
