Nile Ranger jailed for fraud, 8 months

Surely that's his final chance. And for just £2k, must be earning close to that a week now. He'd had a decent season as well.

he was being paid minimum wage when at Blackpool so wouldn't be sure he is on big wages now

Yeh, true. Although he signed a new three and a half year contract in December, so would think he'd be on a reasonable amount.

He wasn't being paid by Blackpool at all when the fraud was committed (Feb 2015). He went AWOL in December 2014, and didn't return to the club until the following July!

And another player transgresses the laws of the land....

FORMER Reading FC forward Hal Robson-Kanu has landed himself in hot water after he was accused of land grabbing by a local authority.

The striker, who currently plays for Premier League outfit West Bromwich Albion, bought a plush mansion in the heart of an exclusive area in Ascot in 2012.

However, the 28-year-old, who is currently away on international duty with Wales, put up a fence around the rear of his garden without official planning permission.

Bracknell Forest Council (BFC) officers have slapped a notice on the gates of Robson-Kanu's Alderson Court property demanding he attends a public enquiry on September 12.

The notice states that the fencing takes up greenbelt land.

Now Robson-Kanu, who racked up 228 appearances for the Royals and is perhaps best known for his iconic goal for Wales against Belgium in last year's European Championships, will argue the council should grant him retrospective planning permission.

BFC has been approached for a comment.

He's got previous. Guilty of impersonating a footballer between 2006 and 2007.


Wasn't he involved in some sort of match fixing ring?

Sanguine highlights why a transitive verb should have an object as well as a subject when the meaning isn't obvious.
