MILLWALL face an FA probe after assistant ref Matthew Wilkes was hit on the head by an object thrown from the crowd during the game with QPR.
Wilkes made referee Thomas Bramall aware of the incident at The Den on 55 minutes.
Lions boss Joe Edwards condemned it but said his keeper Matija Sarkic was also targeted in a 2-0 win.
Home medical staff took a quick look at Wilkes before he continued.
Edwards said: “We don’t want to see that behaviour.
“Matija Sarkic had objects thrown at him as well. So there are issues that the club will have to look into. These things can’t happen.”

Tom Bradshaw’s poacher’s strike put Millwall on course to end their dismal run of seven games without a win.
The Welsh striker slid in at the back post to score just before the break and Murray Wallace made sure when he fired home from close range in the 91st minute from George Honeyman’s corner.
It delivered a much-needed lift for new Den manager Edwards.
He said: “There is definite relief after the run we have been on.

“We want more quality and to play football. But you need a foundation to build on after that run and this was about the team’s spirit.
“We were difficult to play against and were aggressive.”
But the mini-revival sparked by QPR boss Marti Cifuentes is now over after their third straight defeat.
He said: “That was the worst performance since I came to the club.
“We can’t blame anyone else. We didn’t start well and they were more aggressive.”
