-

A FOOTBALL fan faces a ban from all matches after hurling a pie on the pitch.

Adam Cox, 27, threw the missile during Chelsea’s Carabao Cup tie with AFC Bournemout­h at Stamford Bridge in December.

The 6ft 4in Bournemout­h fan became “agitated” with police and was arrested, City of London magistrate­s were told.

Cox, of Christchur­ch, Dorset, did not appear in court but was convicted.

He now faces a football banning order.
