A Manchester United fan who made sickening Hillsborough gestures at Liverpool fans during a Premier League match at Anfield has been banned from attending football games for three years.
Season ticket holder Callum Fleming, 24, was seen in the stands mocking the 97 victims of the disaster by pretending to choke himself and making it appear as if he was being crushed.
