NO police action will be taken against Bury goalkeeper Dean Kiely following allegations about his behaviour during the team's Nationwide League Second Division clash against Bristol Rovers.

Complaints were made by Bristol fans about Kiely's alleged gestures, immediately after Bury scored the winning goal in the 89th minute of the match.

Both Kiely and Shakers chairman Terry Robinson refuted the allegations.

A Greater Manchester Police spokesman said: "Our investigations are complete and no police action will be taken. There is insufficient evidence to continue our inquiries, or to bring any charges."
