💨 Abstract

A football fan, Alfie Holt, was banned from matches for three years after slapping Manchester City's Jack Grealish. The incident occurred after Grealish called Holt a “little, ugly wanker” during an altercation at the Manchester Derby. Holt, a Manchester United season ticket holder, pleaded guilty to assault. The court heard that Holt was abusive towards City players and that Grealish retaliated verbally, prompting Holt to slap him.
