A former Newcastle United prospect is one of four men who has been banned from every football stadium in the UK for a three year period.
Disorder flared shortly before Newcastle United's game against Chelsea on November 12 last year when a fight broke out between rival supporters outside the Black and White Bull on Barrack Road. Officers from Northumbria Police immediately launched an investigation and four men have now been issued with football banning orders, which will stop them from attending any regulated football match in the UK for the next three years.
Magistrates in Newcastle also agreed to additional strict conditions, including the quartet being banned from being within a designated radius of St. James' Park on matchdays and not being within a mile of an away ground in England and Wales where a game involving Newcastle or England is being played.
