Five teenage Oldham Athletic fans have been slapped with three-year football banning orders after violence flared at a derby match, police have revealed.
Greater Manchester Police said all five were involved in 'related disorder that took place between Oldham Athletic and Salford City at Boundary Park in April, 2022'. The force said it came 'moments before' Oldham's relegation from the English Football League in the 2021/22 season.
Several incident, said police, took place throughout the campaign and early into the 2022/23 season, where football-related violence and disorder occurred at fixtures.
