Football violence fans are banned

THREE Aberdeen fans have been banned from attending any football matches in the UK after being involved in a "violent disturbance" before a match with Rangers.

Stanley Thain, 47, and Ivan Bridge, 41, pled guilty at Glasgow Sheriff Court to forming part of a disorderly crowd and engaging in and challenging others to fight.

Gary Leys, 37, admitted an amended charge of shouting and swearing and repeatedly trying to breach a police cordon.
