Widnes Vikings ban two fans for life following crowd trouble

Widnes Vikings confirm that two supporters have been given lifetime bans for their involvement in crowd trouble earlier this month.

Widnes Vikings have confirmed that the club have issued lifetime bans to two supporters following unsavoury scenes against Hull earlier this month.

Ian Hansen and Liam Riccio will no longer be permitted to attend the Select Security Stadium for fixtures due to their involvement in crowd trouble during the Vikings' 72-10 away defeat to Hull.

Widnes chief executive James Rule told the club's official website: "The vast majority of our fans are a credit to the club and support us passionately both home and away.

"However, a small minority have brought the club into disrepute. We will not stand by and let this minority damage the good name and reputation of the Widnes Vikings."

The match in question took place on August 2.
