A man has been jailed for killing his best friend of 45 years with a single punch in a "silly" row.
Paul Lightowler, 60, died nine days after being hit by Richard Eveleigh, 63, after they watched Liverpool's Europa League final defeat on 18 May.
Mr Lightowler's family had urged the judge at Liverpool Crown Court not to send Eveleigh, who admitted manslaughter, to prison.
However, Judge Clement Goldstone QC sentenced him to 28 months in prison.
