Crystal Palace fans reportedly vandalised their own team coach after mistaking it for Middlesborough's.
Vandals covered the coach in graffiti, with 'Crystal Palace FC' sprayed across the bus in red, white and blue paint.
The incident, which happened ahead of Saturday's game against Middlesborough, reportedly caused £40,000 of damage according to the assistant head groundsman.
Dean Waters tweeted: "£40,000 worth of damage on our coach thinking it was the Boro coach. Nice one! #cpfc" before changing his Twitter settings to private.
