Nuff Said 5,973 Posted October 13, 2020 There’s a long list of ITFC players who have been stupid enough to drink and drive in a thread on TWTD. The last incident with one of our players I can remember was Matty Pattison (sp?). But that may be because he messed up pretty spectacularly and others have been a bit more under the radar, so to speak? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rich T The Biscuit 676 Posted October 13, 2020 Seemingly a lot of their fans see this guy as a bit of a joke. Famous for being a tw4t on twitter and living in Nando's. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Icecream Snow 777 Posted October 13, 2020 They should have known what they were getting https://www.eadt.co.uk/sport/james-norwood-journey-to-ipswich-town-1-6098581 Norwood was on trial at Exeter in 2009 when hunger struck. He was sitting on the bench when he nipped to a nearby food stand, returning with a Diet Coke and a hot dog. "League One footballer!" Exeter manager Paul Tisdale is said to have screamed at him. "For me it was nothing out of the ordinary," Norwood said in a recent interview with The Times. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Branston Pickle 4,151 Posted October 13, 2020 There’s nothing wrong with liking a drink, but there’s a time and a place - and driving afterwards is neither. It’s laughable but they saw this guy as their Grant Holt when they signed him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chelm Canary 404 Posted July 13, 2021 (edited) 40 month ban means its not the first time he's done this. Has this been mentioned?. Also wasn't his recorded celebration last season a video of him shaking beer cans? The irony. Edited July 13, 2021 by Chelm Canary Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The article linked previously in the thread by WD40 states. Prosecutor Robert Ireland told the court Norwood had a previous drink-driving conviction from 2012 and that an aggravating feature of the 2020 offence was that his passengers were "not only his friend Mr Mullin but also the two girls he met in Aurora bar". 12 hours ago, WD40 said: https://www.google.com.au/amp/s/www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-suffolk-57809345.amp 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
