Football fans banned
Date published: 01 February 2013
AN Oldham man is among seven Manchester United supporters banned from all football grounds for three years.
The gang was involved in a violent clash outside a bar before a European tie against Dutch club Ajax at Old Trafford a year ago.
Dean Clark (39), from Oldham, and men from Huddersfield, Bury, Bamber Bridge, Northern Moor, Urmston and Denton, were banned from grounds by a judge in Manchester.
The court was given evidence showing the seven were involved in a string of incidents at Manchester United home and away games. All seven took part in violent clashes with Ajax fans outside a Manchester bar before the Europa League match.
