TWO football fans have been banned from matches for up to four years.
James Fillingham, aged 19, and 21-year-old Michael Powell, both from Weston, were slapped with the orders, which mean they cannot go to any regulated ground in England and Wales. The Bristol City fans are also banned from going into a designated area around Ashton Gate for three hours before kick-off and two hours after the final whistle, when the team is playing at home, and are forbidden from entering a town or city where the team may be playing.
Fillingham received a three year order and Powell is restricted for four years for displaying antisocial behaviour.
