Fan ban after pitch invasion

A MANCHESTER City fan has been given a three-year football banning order after a pitch invasion following the title decider at the Etihad Stadium.

Police said the offence occurred following City's final game of the Premier League last season against Aston Villa on May 22, which they won 3-2 to be crowned champions.

Daniel Potts, 26, of Thompson Road, Denton, Tameside, was sentenced at Manchester and Salford Magistrates Court on Thursday, Greater Manchester Police said. He pleaded guilty to a charge of going onto the playing area without lawful authority or lawful excuse under the Football (Offences) Act 1991.
