Coventry's Thomas had cancelled out Summerville's opener in the 1-1 draw, with the Leeds star left unhappy at the final whistle.

He went for the defender and had to be stopped by Coventry midfielder Joel Latibeaudiere.

His own team-mate Wilfried Gnonto also intervened by restraining Summerville, who grabbed Latibeaudiere by the collar.

Summerville tried to escape Gnonto's grasp but the Leeds forward was able to take him away from the melee and Georginio Rutter escorted him down the tunnel.
