The Republic of Ireland international alleged the incident took place at Oakwell on Saturday, the opening day of the Sky Bet Championship season.

Christie wrote on Twitter after the game: “To the Fulham fan that decided to hit my sister at the game today and his wife who justified his action with racist remarks I hope you’re proud of yourself and feel like a big man.

“You’ll get what’s coming to you. Regardless how you felt about the result your actions are shameful.”

Fulham announced in a statement the club will take “the strongest possible action”.

“Fulham Football Club is investigating an incident which took place in the away end at the Barnsley v Fulham fixture this afternoon,” a statement read.

“Should the perpetrators be identified, the club will be taking the strongest possible action.”
