Spurs captain facing Tottenham punishment
Tottenham skipper Ledley King looks set to be internally punished by manager Harry Redknapp after leaving a nightclub drunk during the early hours of last Sunday.
The injury prone Englishman, who had also been accused of assaulting a man in Soho, London, will be in the Spurs’ squad for their penultimate league game at Manchester City tomorrow.
“Ledley will play tomorrow – he has apologised,” said the Spurs manager, who is set to ban his players from drinking alcohol.
“He knows he was wrong. He made a mistake and he has to learn from that and make sure it doesn’t happen again. I’ve had a good chat with him.
“There is no problem with people having the occasional drink, but if you have to get drunk you shouldn’t be drinking.
“I don’t want players going to nightclubs and misbehaving. The problems nearly always come when players get drunk.”
I was just googling around about this when I came by your blog post. I’m only stopping by to say that I definitely liked reading this post, it’s really clear and well written. Are you going to write more on this? It appears like there’s more depth here for future posts.
Yes – this topic will be kept up to date! Thanks for your kind comments.
