A Manchester United fan who admitted "tragedy chanting" has told a court he is "deeply sorry" and "ashamed" and hopes other supporters "think twice".
Michael Avery, 45, pleaded guilty to a public order offence after he was caught making gestures related to the Hillsborough and Heysel stadium disasters to Liverpool fans at the FA Cup quarter-final.
Avery was fined £800 and given a three-year football banning order.
Magistrates also told Avery, of Cranham Road, Manchester, he would have to surrender his passport when certain games were being played outside of the UK.
Avery told Manchester Magistrates' Court: "I just want to reiterate that I'm just deeply sorry and I really regret what I did.
