Not a bad result for the lad , with time off for a guilty plea should be out for the Boxing day game

how does someone with a banning order get an away ticket from Elland Road, I thought they were restricted to members only. Has papa smurf changed the rules ?

Got a friend to buy it for him?

You do, but very few clubs actually check the membership card and the match ticket to see if the names match. It'd only be at clubs that are forced to (ie, Millwall) where he'd be likely to be noticed.

He was apparently arrested last time he breached his order with a match ticket for Coventry and his mate's membership card.

He claimed he was off to a shopping centre in Birmingham.... with a rail ticket for travel to Coventry. Which is either 2 or 5 stops before Birmingham depending on which train you're on.

He should have been imprisoned then for the worst cover story of all time.
