A SOUTHEND United footballer has been sentenced to jail after supplying false details to avoid speeding fines.
Michael Timlin was sentenced to 84 days behind bars this afternoon, June 5, after pleading guilty to three counts of perverting the course of justice.
He also admitted to driving 74mph on the A127 which has a limit of 50mph and received four points on his licence and a £80 fine at Basildon Crown Court.

Dont think it's deserving of jail, but should be banned from driving for life.

This makes me smile, he pleaded guilty and is sent to jail, how many times do I read in the Adver of people being caught driving with no licence or insurance - and the punishment, a fine (which they proably won't pay) and x number of points on their licence, which is non-existent anyway. And sometimes it is not the first time they have been caught.

It amazes me how this is considered a jailable offence when people regularly walk away from court with a suspended sentence having assaulted someone.

it was a reference to the fact someone had already quoted the same story in the "ex swindon players where are they now?" tread, but I wasn't being entirely serious. |

He did'nt get jail time for the speeding it was the fact he lied 3 times and sent in false documents. |
