A WOLVES fan has been slapped with a three-year ban and a £300 fine for throwing a pie at West Ham supporters during their 3-0 win over the Hammers last month.
Romain Saiss and Raul Jiminez grabbed the goals but 44-year-old Josephine Johnson gained the headlines from Molineux after dropping her food onto travelling fans below.
Johnson, a season ticket holder at the club, initially denied chucking the pie intentionally but admitted to the crime after she was shown CCTV footage.
Prosecuting, Roger Blezzard, as quoted by the Express and Star, said: “She had consumed two pints of alcohol and something from a hip flask.
“She was in a relationship that had broken down and was going to football as a release. She initially said it was an accident, but when shown CCTV admitted she got excited and carried away.
“She thought it would be funny to hit a supporter, she was not trying to hurt anyone.”
Johnson has now been banned from games until February 2022 and has been ordered to pay costs of £135 and a victim surcharge of £30, in addition to a £300 fine.
Sentencing her, deputy district judge Graham Bennett said: “The offence is described as throwing a pie.
“You will be aware how serious matters of disorder between opposing fans can quickly escalate into violence.
“You gave really little thought about the consequences.”
