The protester who attached himself to a goalpost and interrupted play during Everton's Premier League win over Newcastle on Thursday has been charged by authorities with tresspass.
Louis McKechnie brought the match to a halt shortly into the second half at Goodison Park after entering the field and fastening himself to the posts in protest against oil consumption.
He was subsequently removed, with the additional time allotted ultimately leading to Alex Iwobi's winner for the Toffees - and now, he has been charged for his actions, as well as banned from all sporting venues across the country.
