Oxford Magistrates’ Court heard how the man was injured in what police called a set of ‘serious incidents’ in the away section.

The trouble involved Wednesday fans only, Oxford United said at the time.

Euman pleaded guilty to assault by beating and using threatening or abusive words or behaviour.

He was handed a football banning order that restricts him from attending matches for three years.
