A football fan, Charles Ogunmilade, has been banned from attending matches for three years after posting a racist comment targeting Ghanaian Arsenal player Thomas Partey on social media.
The incident occurred in April 2023 when Partey missed a shot during Arsenal's 3-3 draw with Southampton.
Ogunmilade, who is Black, admitted to posting a "grossly offensive" message on X (formerly Twitter).
He claimed the post was intended as a parody of what a racist white person might say.
