"Manchester United today issued an indefinite club ban to James White, who pleaded guilty to charges at Willesden Magistrates Court."


"The club's ban goes further with the immediately imposed three-year suspension being extended to an indefinite ban from all club activities including all matches at Old Trafford.



"Mockery of Hillsborough - and other football tragedies - is completely unacceptable and the club will continue to support firm action to eradicate it from the game."


After being arrested, he told police: "You haven't even asked me what the t-shirt means. My grandad died aged 97 and didn't have enough kids."
