A 31-year-old man has pleaded guilty to a public order offence after he mocked the death of football mascot Bradley Lowery at a match on Friday.

Houghton was charged after a picture was shared on social media of two men laughing in the stands at Sheffield Wednesday's match against Sunderland FC at the Hillsborough Stadium last week.

One of them, now known to be Houghton, was holding up an image of Bradley, who died of neuroblastoma aged six in 2017.

Before he died, he led England out at Wembley alongside the team's former striker Jermain Defoe.
