CYRIL the Swan, Swansea City�s outrageous mascot has been cleared of crowd incitement during Sunday�s Vetch Field match with Millwall.
It was football,a brawl between 2 club mascots.

Cyril removed the head of his Millwall counterpart Zampa the Lion and kicked it across the pitch after the mascots took part in the usual half-time penalty contest.

�Cyril�s action has been criticised by some sections of the media,� said Swansea spokesman Peter Owen.

�But we want to stress that it was a good-natured affair with light-hearted banter between the mascots.

�A head-to-head situation developed when Zampa attempted to remove Cyril�s head.

�But Cyril managed to relieve Zampa of his head. It was done in fun and the club objects to press insinuations that Millwall fans were enraged by the incident.

�From the smiles on their faces, they took the matter in the jovial way it was intended.

�The club cannot condone behaviour likely to incite trouble and although the referee will not be reporting the matter or South Wales Police taking any action , we have spoken to Cyril about his future behaviour.�
