Newcastle Fan Gets 5 Year Ban For Racism - What's In A Name?


Recommended Posts

A Newcastle United season-ticket holder has been handed a five-year football banning order after being found guilty of racially abusing Liverpool players during an undercover stewarding operation.

Michael Collins was observed making racial taunts during Liverpool's 3-2 Premier League victory at Newcastle on May 4 and subsequently arrested by Northumbria Police.

He was earlier this week convicted of racially aggravated harassment at North Tyneside Magistrates Court and is now banned from attending all home and away matches for the next five years, while he was also fined £550.

Newcastle announced Collins has been banned from St James' Park "for an indefinite period".
