It has not been a palatable week for Wayne Rooney. He got arrested for drink driving just some time back. Then he and his new team Everton F.C. got the thrashing of their lives only yesterday evening as Manchester United took them to the cleaners with a 4-0 thrashing.

And today, a court found Wayne Rooney guilty of the charges brought against him earlier on in the drink driving case and sentenced him to a two year driving ban. Added to that is an order to carry out 100 hours of work without pay. Oh Dearie!

The Everton striker had been stopped by police on 1st September in the early hours of the day where he was found to have been driving at nearly three times over the allowed speed limit and eventually discovered to have had some104 microgrammes of alcohol in every 100ml of his breath. The allowed limit stands at 35 microgrammes.

Rooney has however apologised to family, friends and fans for “letting them down very badly” (as he put it) after pleading guilty to the charges. As at the time of the incidence, his pregnant wife, Coleen was away on holiday with the couple’s three sons.



The District Judge John Temperley had the following to say;

“This was a serious offence that you admitted. You were driving a motor vehicle nearly three times the limit.

“You were carrying a passenger, which is an aggravating factor.”

The judge added: “You are a young man with no similar previous convictions.

“I have read a bundle of character references handed in on your behalf and they speak very highly of you as a person. I accept your remorse is genuine.”

Wayne Rooney’s solicitor, Michael Rainford on his own part said “Wayne Rooney wishes to express his genuine remorse for what was a terrible mistake, a terrible error of judgement on his part that evening.
