THE player dubbed ânon-league footballâs answer to Eric Cantonaâ has been banned until October by the Football Association after his furious confrontation with a fan last month.
Karl Colley, 30, was filmed angrily running into the stands to face down a supporter of opponents Coalville after being sent off in Gooleâs 3-0 defeat at their Victoria Pleasure Grounds home in north-east England.
Video footage, which was posted on the YouTube website, showed Colley making three attempts to tackle the fan and also appearing to throw a punch amidst a flurry of abusive language.
Colley was also fined ÂŁ150.
Colley, who had been the club captain, was sacked by Goole shortly after the match.
Former Manchester United star Cantona was banned for nine months for his kung-fu kick at Crystal Palace fan Matthew Simmons after being red-carded at Selhurst Park in Jan 1995.
