Report: Swindon Town fan banned for life for hitting Jamie Jones

The Swindon Town fan who ran onto the pitch during yesterday's 3-1 defeat against Leyton Orient has been banned for life, according to The Independent.

The fan threw a punch at Orient goalkeeper Jamie Jones, but was tackled by stewards without Jones retaliating.

Speaking after the incident, Orient manager Russell Slade said that it was the "worst scene" he had seen in football and called on Swindon to ban the person responsible for life.

The Robins have now done that, while the FA have also started an investigation into the incident.
