James White was fined £1,000, ordered to pay a surcharge of £400 and £85 in costs and has also been banned from all regulated football games in the UK for four years.
A man has admitted wearing a Manchester United football shirt at Wembley Stadium which made an offensive reference to the Hillsborough disaster.
The judge added the shirt which White wore bore a "hateful expression" - calling it an "abhorrent message" - and that the impact of his actions are "profound and distressing". White, who laughed in the dock, was fined £1,000 and ordered to pay a surcharge of £400 and £85 in costs. "Mockery of Hillsborough and other football tragedies is completely unacceptable and the club will continue to support firm action to eradicate it from the game."
