Arsenal Bans Supporters for Racist and Abusive Behaviour

Arsenal have banned 24 supporters for abusive and discriminatory behaviour – including racism and assault – at Emirates Stadium and online last season.

Fourteen fans have been handed three-year bans from home and away games by the Premier League club, while the other 10 are banned for one year.

Most of the incidents occurred at the north London club’s Emirates Stadium, while three fans were found to have been abusive online.

Arsenal’s managing director Richard Garlick says the club will continue to take a hard-line approach on abuse and discrimination.
