The Sun reports that a Nottingham Forest supporter who bit the testicle’s of a match steward in the December clash with Leeds United has been banned for three years. The spectator will also need to pay compensation and do 180 hours of community service.

A collection of steward’s tried to calm the individual in question down, leading to a scuffle and the fan being charged for assault by a district judge.

The Championship encounter ended 1-1 at the City Ground, and it turned out to be an occasion that many won’t forget in a hurry.

The Forest fans has subsequently been banned from attending any football from across the top four English, in addition to the fine and community service.

A court overheard the series of events, which resulted in the supporter being charged of assault of not just one steward, but two. The second came as a result of the overall foray, which began after a friend of the fan was ejected from the stadium.

The fan in question is said to have put one of the match stewards in a headlock, before support arrived and he was forced to the ground. It was during this specific incident which led to the biting taking place, with a court hearing that the steward in question felt “a sharp pain”. The fan also said “I am going to get you.”

The court ruled he acted “recklessly, not intentionally”.

The fan in question could now be forced to hand over his passport, whilst he must pay £150 to the security stewards in question.

Talk about a balls up!
