There’s an update on this on the Mansfield police Facebook page. Sentence to 6 months in prison.

8 year football ban too

Should be a lifetime ban

Obviously a guilty plea.

#JAILED | Racist in jail following abuse at football match

A racist football hooligan has been put behind bars and banned from the game after making monkey chants at a match.

Jamie Strouther was in the stands as Mansfield Town took on Carlisle United at home and began shouting racist abuse and making monkey noises and gestures as the teams were playing.

The stewards then approached him to intervene when he became aggressive and pushed one away.

Dedicated football officers arrested him shortly after the incident on Tuesday 7 December 2021.

Strouther, 31, of Bilborough Road, Mansfield, was sentenced to a total of six months and two weeks in prison when he appeared at Nottingham Magistrates’ Court on Thursday 9 December 2021.

He was also ordered to pay £100 in compensation and handed an eight-year football banning order after pleading guilty to assault and racially aggravated public order offences.

Superintendent Claire Rukas, Nottinghamshire Police’s head of Operational Support, said: “Football is there for people to enjoy and we are committed to ensuring that it remains the ‘beautiful game’ that it is famously known as.

“Racism has no place in society or sport. Hate crime is very clearly on the agenda for football both nationally and locally and it is something that is actively being targeted, with robust action being taken where this is seen and reported.

“When Strouther was spotted making these gestures and remarks, the team at the game worked quickly to intercept this and stop him in his tracks.

“Incidents like these completely go against what sport is about and spoil the atmosphere, but most of all these comments and gestures are highly upsetting and degrading.

“I would also like to thank the supporters who came forward to report this after being appalled by Strouther’s behaviour.

“We are pleased to hear of this result at court and that Strouther will not be allowed or welcomed to matches for the years to come. We hope this serves as a warning to anyone else who may make these remarks that this is taken extremely seriously and could land them with hefty consequences.”

Sounds like a nasty piece of work with previous convictions for assaulting his partner too:

6 months for a habitually thugg is a joke violence seems his way of life, anyway 6 months in a H,M,P gym and he will be ready to go again, feel for the young lady.
Banning orders will not bother him, and the threat of jail time , he has been their and done it

What should the punishment be if the above won't work?

Well done the club and the people who witnessed the incident

And racially aggravated assault. The weasel tried to excuse it. Blamed it on covid. He’s a career waste of oxygen.

I think forced attendance of a Steel Pulse gig and a jumper with “I’m a convicted racist” on it would be super

Not like them,and their agenda's

[HitchcocksShins]

Good. F that C.

I believe people are by and large good and they have a redemption arc within them... having said that, from what I've heard about what happened, the club has made the right choice and I'm proud they did.

I'd love to think that in our legal system there might be some kind of, I guess "rehab" stage. I doubt it exists and if it does, doubt it works. We want to eradicate racism, right? So just pushing racists off to the side just pushes racists off to the edges of society, almost certainly worse than they ever were. It's b0ll0x

[HU7stag]

Good riddance to the racist raspberry
