- Premier League, EFL and FA measures take immediate effect
- Drug use and throwing objects will also lead to bans
Pitch invaders at English football will be banned from stadiums and reported to police under new measures agreed by the game’s authorities.
The crackdown will lead to supporters facing the same sanction if found with fireworks or flares, commonly known as “pyro”, in grounds and for throwing objects or drug use. The new rules follow multiple scenes of disorder at the close of the last domestic season.
