RHYL FC do not wish to pursue an incident in which a Lilywhites fan was allegedly hit by a masonry object at Tuesday's League Cup tie at Bangor City any further.
James Thorley, 32, was allegedly struck by the missile during the first half of the match which City eventually won 3-1 after extra time.
Club secretary Joe Furnival said Rhyl were satisfied with the security arrangements at Farrar Road.
"There were 18 security men and four police officers on duty who did everything they could to avoid any difficulties," said Mr Furnival.
"Bangor told us beforehand of the security measures in place and their secretary kept me informed of everything that had gone on during the game.
"It is our understanding that the object was thrown from outside the ground and was out of the control of the security staff and police on duty.
"We have informed the person who was hit by the object of the proceedures he can follow if he wishes to pursue the matter and this is now in his hands."
