Sheep fan facing jail

Personally I wouldn’t send him to jail, yes he seems like an idiot and probably has a low IQ, but sending him to jail would be over the top in my opinion.

Then there's the flip side of the coin. Every lady's front bottom wants to see Rangers fans jailed for the slightest thing, and it's happened often enough.
We never started this carry on. so let the others pay the price too.

Unpaid work for Aberdeen fan who hurled sectarian abuse at Ibrox steward

This is now the third time David Mitchell, 43, has appeared in court for a football-related disorder.

An Aberdeen fan who abused a steward during a match against Rangers has been ordered to do unpaid work.

Court papers state that Mitchell, of Lewis Road, Aberdeen, behaved in a threatening or abusive manner at the match.

The charge says he shouted, swore and directed abusive remarks towards stewards working at the stadium.

Glasgow Sheriff Court heard that a steward was dealing with a woman when Mitchell approached.

Prosecutor Gemma Barclay said: “Mitchell shouted in the face of the steward ‘you hun b******’.”

Mitchell was then arrested before being released on an undertaking.

This is Mitchell’s third football-related offence having received his first – a breach of the peace – in 2007 in Glasgow.

He was fined £570 in 2020 after he went on a sectarian rant about face masks at a McDonald’s in Aberdeen.

Mitchell had spotted a couple with the man wearing a Rangers branded face mask and the woman wore a plain one.

He called the woman a “hun” and “orange” after the woman – who suffers from asthma – pulled the mask down slightly.

Mitchell had initially told her to wear the mask “properly.”

Mitchell also punched the man during the incident.

Haroun Malik, defending, told the sentencing: “He appears at court with a great deal of regret for his actions.

“He understands that this was a public forum and it is completely unacceptable.

“He cannot follow the herd and he has to take responsibility for his own actions.”

It is understood that Mitchell served a five-month ban from Aberdeen Football Club.

Sheriff Bernard Ablett imposed a further three-month ban on Mitchell at the sentencing.

He also ordered Mitchell to do 80 hours of unpaid work.

The sheriff said: “Behaviour like this has a direct and indirect effect as it can cause other people to behave in this way.

“You have to be very careful about that in future.”

Mitchell, from Sheddocksley, was also fined £570 in 2020 after he went on a sectarian rant about face masks at a McDonald’s in Aberdeen.

David Mitchell’s sectarian rant about facemasks landed him in court in 2020.

Mitchell had spotted a couple with the man wearing a Rangers branded face mask and the woman wore a plain one.

He called the woman a “hun” and “orange” after the woman – who suffers from asthma – pulled the mask down slightly.

Mitchell had initially told her to wear the mask “properly.”

Mitchell also punched the man during the incident.

He pled guilty today at Glasgow Sheriff Court to his latest offence.

Haroun Malik, defending, told the court that his client has not attended football since the incident.

Sheriff delivers jail warning

Sheriff Mark McGuire said: “Your record shows that this is your third football-related conviction for disorder.

“That being so, custody will have to be at the forefront of the court’s mind.

“You have not taken a telling before and proceeded with your behaviour.

“This is not the first time that you have engaged in this type of conduct in this jurisdiction.

“Your behaviour is running the length and breadth of the country and the court will be looking at custody.”

Mitchell, of Lewis Road, Aberdeen, is currently on bail with no legal conditions not to attend football matches.

However, he is banned from Ibrox Stadium regardless of the court’s eventual decision.

Sentence was deferred pending background reports until next month where more information surrounding the circumstances of the offence will be heard.

Lamb don’t lamb, gimmers and ewes lamb.

And by your own definition the back end of April would not be the start of the season.
The vast majority have a lambing season of mid March to mid April.

43!?! What, stone?
 
A 3 month football ban, starting now? So he'll miss Aberdeens meaningless games until the end of the season and then be back for the new season. Great punishment that.
