Millwall to take serious action against 'Galatasaray fan'

Millwall will ban for life the man who taunted Leeds fans by wearing a Galatasaray shirt and making stabbing motions. The incident was a clear reference to the death of Leeds fans Christopher Loftus and Kevin Speight, who were stabbed to death before a UEFA Cup semi-final against the Turkish side in 2000.

Millwall chief executive Andy Ambler told the Sun: "Another fan was ejected and arrested for waving a Turkish flag.

"We didn't see the man wearing the Galatasaray shirt, but we will try to identify him from CCTV and photographs and if we do, he will be banned."
