A football supporter was beaten unconscious as he waited for a bus in Bradford city centre, a Court heard.

Andrew Auton, 53, suffered an epileptic fit, cuts and black eyes when he was punched, kicked and stamped on.

He was detained overnight in Bradford Royal Infirmary after the unprovoked attack. One of his teeth was broken and he was unable to drive for seven weeks.

Mr Auton was set on near Tesco Express in Sunbridge Road, late on October 20, 2008.

Bradford Crown Court was told today he was waiting for a bus to Bingley after watching a televised football match at the Midland Hotel.

Jermaine Bham, 19, of Summerbridge Crescent, Eccleshill, Bradford, and Asim Iqbal, 18, of Whetley Hill, Manningham, Bradford, have pleaded guilty to assaulting Mr Auton and causing him actual bodily harm.

They will be sentenced on April 16.

A trial of issue was held at the court in which the Judge Shaun Spencer QC found that Bham did not kick Mr Auton and stamp on him.

But the judge did not accept that Bham tried to pull the three other men attacking Mr Auton off him.
