Jack Fletcher Banned for 'Gay Boy' Slur

Manchester United academy star Jack Fletcher has been handed a significant ban for using the homophobic slur 'gay boy' during an EFL Trophy match. The incident occurred when an opponent made comments about Fletcher's father, Manchester United legend Darren Fletcher, and his twin brother.

The ban comes as part of disciplinary action following the match where the young player directed the inappropriate remark at an opponent who had criticized his family connections to the football club.
