Blackburn fan’s racism ban welcomed
Jason Perryman, 22, was caught on television hurling monkey chants and gesturing towards Yorke as the Birmingham striker warmed up during the 3-3 draw on Sunday.
Perryman, of Chorley, Lancashire, admitted at Blackburn Magistrates Court to an offence of racially aggravated disorderly behaviour and was banned from attending matches in England and Wales until 2009. He was also fined £1,000 with £75 costs.
