    if they did it that is:

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/uk_news/england/hampshire/7458767.stm

    Nathan Dyer and Bradley Wright Phillips charged with burglary

    "Staff members at the nightclub claim three mobile phones, £145 in cash, student cards and cigarettes went missing from three handbags.
    Police launched an investigation when a group of men were filmed on CCTV entering the unlocked staff room."


    surely they make enough money at championship level that they dont need to steal less than a couple of hundred pounds

    It’s not uncommon

    Winona Ryder the actress who is far, far richer then these two was caught shoplifting a few years back.
    Nothing to do with money, it’s to do with taking a chance and the rush and excitement that’s involved.

    From what I've seen of these two I wouldn't really call them scumbags, just drunken stupidity I would say

    Wasn't there video footage released of this last year? If yes then what they did was a bit more than drunken stupidity


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,289 ✭✭✭gucci


    I dunno, but I would class any act of theft from anyone as a scumbag thing to do.

    Drunken stupidity I would class as something stupid that didnt involve stealing or vandalism.

    Drunken stupidity is putting a traffic cone on your head, not stealing IMO.

    Agrees. Most people who get drunk don't go around robbing people.
