20 suspected football hooligans have been charged with violent disorder after Chelsea and Cardiff City fans clashed on the Kings Road.

49 have now been charged over the riot when the two sides met in an FA Cup Fifth Round tie on February 13. Saturday shoppers and families fled in terror as the brawling supporters squared up to each other and hurled missiles across police lines.

One police officer was smashed in the face by a brick - Lee Hilton, 39, of Angmering in Littlehampton on the south coast, was charged last month with violent disorder and causing grievous bodily harm to a police officer.

The suspects, who are from various parts of the country, were all bailed to appear at West London Magistrates' Court in Hammersmith next Friday.

The men are all charged with affray or violent disorder within the last two weeks, include John Saward, 50, of Shepperton in Middlesex, and Welsh fans Lee Simmonds, 37; Andrew Pritchard, 24; Samual Johnson, 20; Ryan Churchill, 25; Morgan Anderson, 19; Jai Head, 36; Hayden Baker, 46; Ian Thomas, 25; Gareth Green, 26; and Michael Thorne, 35.

Also charged with violent disorder are Welsh supporters Neil Teconi, 33; Mark Evans, 38; Steve O'Hara, 31; Paul O'Hara, 36; Phillip Newman, 23; Robert Connolly, 45; Chris Western, 30; Lee Eagan, 19; and Nathan Marshallsea, 21.

Another 28 men from around London, the south east and the Midlands were all arrested in April or June, and either bailed pending further enquiries, or charged with violent disorder or affray. All those charged will stand before Magistrates next week.
