Appearing in court via video link from jail, Mytton admitted the manslaughter of Cardiff City supporter, Dye.

The 44-year-old was taken to Northwick Park Hospital after suffering a fractured skull on a concourse next to the stadium, in north-west London, at 7.20pm, but died shortly after his arrival.

Dye, known to many as Mikey, worked in Cardiff council's highways department.

The long-time Bluebirds fan wrote about his team on the Cardiff City Forum internet site.

A Facebook page called RIP MIKE DYE set up after his death has over 10,000 followers who poured in their tributes.

One, from Paul Hill, read: 'A true gent and a man of honour, a father and family man, sadly missed but well remembered, this man gave his all in life and was cheated out of it... never forgotten mike RIP. XX'

Mytton will be sentenced at the Old Bailey on December 21.
