Norwich City supporters were the third best behaved fans in the Championship last season amid a continued rise in fan disorder at football matches.
Canaries fans were arrested nine times during matches during the 2022-23 campaign, down from 17 the previous season, with two new banning orders issued, Home Office statistics have shown.
Rotherham and Wigan were the only better behaved in the league with four and eight arrests respectively.
Table-topping promoted side Burnley saw the highest number of arrests with 50, followed by Birmingham and Millwall both with 47.

The Norwich arrests included two for violent disorder, two for public order offences and four for throwing missiles, including a supporter who threw a flare onto the pitch at Millwall.
Arrests in the current season have already exceeded the same point last year with four Canaries fans arrested after last month’s game at Coventry, where an 11-year-old girl was cut when a coin was thrown.
It comes amid a continued rise in football arrests although the latest increase can be attributed to the addition of drug possession as an offence under the Football Spectators Act.
There were a total of 2,264 football-related arrests during the 2022-23 season across the top five divisions, up from what was already an eight-year high of 2,198 the previous campaign.

But that increased figure included 200 arrests for the possession of class A drugs and 101 arrests related to the World Cup in Qatar.
West Ham topped the table for the number of arrests by club with 89, six more than Manchester United with Leeds the third highest total with 69.
Chief Constable Mark Roberts, NPCC lead for football policing, said: "It is encouraging to see a slight reduction in the number of reported incidents, but we must put this into context and remember that the level of disorder we are seeing across football continues to be much higher than before the pandemic.
"Police are continuing to take positive action to reverse this trend by making a high number of arrests."
