A FAN who hurled a flare onto the pitch faces being the only woman in Britain banned from all footie grounds.
Abbie-Leigh Reay, 23, threw the missile towards the ref when her team Tranmere went 3-0 down in a League Two fixture against Forest Green.
She was caught on CCTV as she threw her arms up in celebration.
Police later stopped the Aldi worker as she was leaving Tranmere’s stadium following her team’s 4-0 defeat in January.
At Sefton magistrates’ court, Reay, of Bebington, Merseyside, denied throwing a missile onto a football playing area.
But she was convicted and could be banned from visiting any UK sports ground. She will be sentenced this month.
