Just reported on SSN that he is in trouble for an assault charge. More to follow when I can find an article.

What is it with footballers today? Do they not learn that they are in the public eye and if they fart everyone know about it. Surely this is something their managers and agents should be controlling. I know SAF when Lee Sharpe was playing for Man United he kicked everyone out of a house party and dragged Giggs and Sharpe out and told them to go home. Players are role models for young kids and in recent news are not showing to be good ones.

You don't know what actually happened though, because they are in the public eye also means they are an easy target.

Oh yes I know that. But surely when these sort of incidents happen they should just walk away and not get involved. Whether it was his mate that started it or not.

I'd say that was easier said than done. There's any number of tossers who'll have a go at someone with celebrity status (however minor), and then have their 15 minutes of fame by selling the story to the papers.

Bit like the Gerrard one? Cause I don't know alot about what happened with that one.

Indeed. It's not easy to walk away when you've got some gobby, ****ed up Geordie trying to have a pop at you just because of what you do for a living... And besides, people who prey purposefully on footballers in attempt to grab a quick pay-off and 15 minutes of fame deserve a jab or two.

The classic has to be the Pro footballers speeding ticket though. Plus all of those that have got away for paying an on the spot bonus fine to the traffic cop.

I know SAF when Lee Hughes was playing for Man United he kicked everyone out of a house party and dragged Giggs and Hughes out and told them to go home.

Wasn't that Lee Sharpe?

Sorry I put Hughes instead of Sharpe. Got my names mixed up.

Danielle Lloyd has got about 3 years of 'fame' out of it so far.

Indeed, but she had to date a Colchester player for the best part of a year. She's had her punishment.

Plus she gets to win this years Totty cup if there is any justice....
