He's not the first footballer
to be charged with drink driving, and he won't be the last. As for 'a disgrace to Norwich City,' I'm not sure about that. If he was completely pissed, yes - if he'd had two pints and was a fraction over the limit, maybe disgrace is a bit harsh. I agree, on the face of it the evidence at the scene is usually overwhelming. But I have heard of cases where there's been an acquittal because of faulty readings etc.
It's not something to be proud of but I sailed close to the wind with drink driving when I was younger. For that reason, I can't be too hypocritcal about Pattison, althugh if he is guilty, I admit it doesn't look good.
