The Cardiff City player was killed when his plane crashed into the English Channel on 21 January 2019.
Harry Keyes, 22, of Huddersfield Road, Mirfield, was arrested at Leeds United’s match against Cardiff City at Elland Road on August 6.
He was given a three-year football banning order by Leeds magistrates.
Keyes had pleaded guilty to a Section 5 public order offence of using threatening, abusive or insulting words or behaviour to cause harassment, alarm or distress.
He was arrested after he was seen making aeroplane gestures at the match, West Yorkshire Police said.
Ch Insp Pete Hall, who led the policing operation at the game, said:
“Directing chants, comments or gestures that refer to tragic incidents at rival fans is highly offensive and can cause genuine distress to those affected by those incidents.
“It has absolutely no place in football, and people going to games should be in no doubt about how seriously the authorities and the clubs will treat any such incidents.”
Keyes was also fined £107 and ordered to pay £85 prosecution costs and a £43 victim surcharge.
There are good people at Leeds and they will seek to make amends for that incident.
But with fans wondering what has become of their club, the overarching shift in ethos is harder to explain away.
From Bielsa to Allardyce. For some, it is just too on the nose.
Bielsa recalibrated the club and supporters revelled in the exciting football that came with it.
Leeds were better to watch, better to support. Heads were high.
Pride as well as Premier League status was restored. Leeds were united. A city was reignited.
It feels a long time ago now. After last season’s escape, erosion has led to collapse.
Leeds fans have been brought to their knees and the fear will be that this represents the killing stroke.
The prospect of relegation under Allardyce looms. It was not supposed to be like this.
They say the seventh stage of grief is acceptance and the mere act of turning to Allardyce, 68, will be viewed by some supporters as an ideological defeat.
Long seen as Bielsa’s polar opposite, the truth is more nuanced than that but turning to him is still symbolic.
