Djeidi Gassama’s late equaliser salvaged Wednesday a replay after Danish midfielder Victor Torp had marked his Coventry debut with a stunning first-half opener.
Gassama denied the Sky Blues a second win at Hillsborough inside a week after their 2-1 Championship success on Saturday, which was marred by allegations of racist abuse towards their striker Palmer during the match.
Both clubs condemned the alleged abuse earlier this week and a man was arrested on Thursday, but Palmer was booed on several occasions by a section of home fans and Robins was furious after the tie.
“The reaction was a disgrace. People need to have a look at themselves,” said Robins.
“What are they doing? It’s ridiculous. It’s a joke – an absolute joke.”
