Leicester give stadium bans to three fans for 'unacceptable conduct' during Brighton match
In a statement today, the club said it is committed to protecting the matchday environment at the King Power Stadium and as a result has issued three bans varying in length from two to 12 months.
Two of those banned have also been subject to criminal proceedings, one resulting in a police caution and another a significant fine following the undertaking of a programme education delivered by Kick It Out – football’s equality and inclusion organisation.
