Love how they all crawl out of the woodwork giving it loads when they are doing well and then mysteriously disappear when they lose a few games. Typical BS behaviour that.

 

And just like that, my facebook page turns blue. Like clockwork.

This tickled me the other day.

 

http://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/liverpool-news/local-news/2013/03/14/everton-fc-goalkeeper-jan-mucha-given-driving-ban-and-tells-court-he-doesn-t-read-his-own-post-100252-32985068/

 

EVERTON FC goalkeeper Jan Mucha told police he did not know he was banned from driving because he does not read his own post.

 

The 30-year-old was yesterday ordered to do 250 hours unpaid work by magistrates after being caught driving through Wilmslow, Cheshire, while banned from the road.

 

He told police in interview he had no idea he was not allowed to drive because he simply passed all his own mail on to the club to read and sort.

Michelle Brown, defending, later said Mucha was aware he was disqualified until March 12 and had simply miscalculated when the ban ended.

 

But she admitted the Slovakian international lived in a “very insular world” and said he would take more care in the future to manage his own affairs.

 

Debbie Byrne, prosecuting, told magistrates Mucha was pulled over driving his Audi Q7 down Altrincham Road on February 21.

 

A check of the police national computer showed he still had 19 days to run on a ban that he had received for accumulating too many penalty points.

 

Miss Byrne said: “In interview said he did not know he was disqualified.

 

“He said he was not even aware he had penalty points.

 

“He said he did not even read his own post because he gave it to the club to deal with.”

 

Mucha, of Walton Park, Walton, joined Everton from Polish side Legia Warsaw in 2010 and the court heard he lives with his partner and four children.

 

He did not speak during the hearing at Macclesfield magistrates court but was kept abreast of proceedings with the help of an interpreter.

 

Mucha pleaded guilty to driving while disqualified and driving without insurance.

 

Mucha was ordered to do 250 hours unpaid work, despite a warning that may be impractical because his contract with Everton expires in the summer and he may leave the country.

 

Probation officer Mike Isherwood told the court: “His contract expires in June and he does not know if he will be playing football in England after that.

 

“Realistically I have concerns about him being able to complete the order.”

 

Mucha was also banned from driving for a further six months and ordered to pay £85 court costs with a £60 victim surcharge.

 

Magistrates said they rejected the option of a fine due to the seriousness of the offence.

 

***********************************

So, someone at Everton has the job of checking his mail - and didn't think it worth telling him that he's banned from driving.

 

Incompetent paltroons.

So he's been here for 3 years and still doesn't understand English :whistle:

A Premiership footballer has denied responsibility for a message that appeared on his Twitter account, apparently in support of the IRA.

 

Shane Duffy, an Everton defender and Republic of Ireland international, said someone took his phone and retweeted the message without his knowledge.

 

The message appeared on his account during the earlier hours of Monday.

 

He later apologised for any offence caused and tweeted: "cant leave ur phone anywhere now!!" (sic).

 

'Mess'

 

Duffy, 21, is originally from County Londonderry.

 

As a teenager, he played for Northern Ireland at Under 16, 17, 19, and 21 level.

 

In February 2010, he switched his international allegiance to the Republic of Ireland.

 

The footballer has more than 48,000 followers on the micro-blogging site.

 

Later on Monday morning, Duffy reiterated his denials and said he was getting "abuse" from many Twitter users for something he did not do.

 

He posted: "The retweets and tweets was not me. Got to accept the hate. Really am sorry for this mess! Sorry guys!"

 

Controversy

 

Everton FC has not yet made a comment on the matter.

 

It is not the first time a Republic of Ireland international has been involved in controversy on Twitter.

 

Last month, Duffy's Irish team-mate and fellow Derry native James McClean closed his Twitter account after a row over an Irish rebel song.

 

McClean, who plays for Sunderland AFC, named The Broad Black Brimmer by The Wolfe Tones as his favourite song.

How far down is Rodgers in that list?

In the top 40?

Top 50?

At least he's not getting paid silly money!

That explains the Twitter message from the same player urging on Spurs against Liverpool, when Everton are supposedly chasing 4th place.
