A Plymouth-based Wigan Athletic fan has denied bringing a flare to the team’s crunch tie with Bolton Wanderers last month.
Cameron Hendy, 27, of North Down Road, Plymouth, appeared before borough justices to plead not guilty to the single charge of having the blue incendiary device at a designated ground at a designated sporting event in Wigan on April 2.
The case, which is being prosecuted under the Sporting Events (Control of Alcohol etc) Act, was adjourned until August 28.
