HEREFORD United's excellent FA Cup draw against Tranmere Rovers was marred by several arrests.
Merseyside police arrested 16 away supporters on Saturday for public order offences.
They included disruptive behaviour, spitting at a steward, and making an abusive gesture.
Four fans in the away end were also ejected, while five were arrested outside Prenton Park for drink-related offences.
West Mercia police also sent undercover officers to Birkenhead yesterday to pick out troublemakers.
Around 2,000 Hereford fans travelled to the Wirral for the third round tie, which finished 2-2.
The replay is scheduled for Tuesday, January 15, at Edgar Street.
