A Still Further Headline Quiz

City players have been accused of shoplifting (chicken), common assault, failure to maintain a black-out, match fixing, impersonation of a professional footballer, theft from the dressing room, probably thousands of vehicle related offences and worse! As the headline does not imply it was a current City player at the time I'll go with David Gilbert.
 
The use of the awful word 'soccer' suggests a US headline. Wasn't old Shrek Rooney locked up whilst he played over in the States for being a typical pissed up scouser a year or so back

1. The word soccer is by no means an Americanism. I was a regular reader of the magazine 'Soccer Star' in the 1960s, a magazine which was founded by Raich Carter in 1952.
