Ban handed to football fan following disturbance involving Huddersfield and Bradford fans
He'll also have to pay a fine
A football fan has been handed a three year ban from attending matches after a confrontation involving Bradford City and Huddersfield Town fans.
18 year old Bantams supporter Jack Wood, of Jer Lane, admitted to a public order offence at Bradford Crown Court where he was also slapped with a £365 fine.
It follows an incident outside the Bradford Arms pub on Manningham Lane ahead of a match on September 13.
Wood jumped a cordon to confront opposition fans and was arrested.
Chief Inspector Mark Gamlyn, of West Yorkshire Police, said: “Loutish criminal behaviour such as this is completely unacceptable and causes unnecessary distress and upset to those who have to witness it.
“We know the vast majority of fans, particularly families and children, don’t want to experience this when they set out to see their teams play.
“We will always treat incidents like this seriously and we hope the lengthy banning order resulting from this latest prosecution will send a clear message.”
