Overview
- South Sefton Magistrates’ Court handed Jarvis a 10-week prison term suspended for 12 months, 20 rehabilitation days, 150 hours of unpaid work, £500 in damages and a £154 surcharge, and he said he is ready for rehabilitation.
- Jarvis admitted trespass after joining Australia’s line-up in full kit during the national anthem at Everton’s Hill Dickinson Stadium, which was shown live on BBC, before stewards removed him and police arrested him.
- Security footage shown in court detailed how he tested multiple doors, entered through an unlocked access point and reached the dugout unchallenged, exposing gaps in stadium checks before a major broadcast.
- The court also imposed a five-year criminal behaviour order that bars him from disrupting sporting events, requires him to show tickets to police on request and confines him to permitted areas, with breach risking jail.
- Prosecutors cited prior stunts including colliding with cricketer Jonny Bairstow at The Oval in 2021 and a 2025 pitch run-on in Dublin that earned a five-year football ban, and he changed an earlier not-guilty plea to guilty.
