by | 30th, December 2008

ENGLAND footballer Steven Gerrard has been charged with assault and affray following an alleged nightclub brawl.

Runs the police statement:

“Merseyside Police has charged Steven Gerrard, 28, of Formby, John Doran, 29, and Ian Smith, 19, both from Huyton, Liverpool, with assault occasioning actual bodily harm and affray, following an incident at Bold Street in Southport. The three men will appear at North Sefton magistrates court on January 23.”

Anorak solicits the speculative views of a few who allegedly saw the incident on TV:

“Nah. Stevie G took his penalty well. He had full control of the ball and the other lad just came in and took his legs clean away” – Alan Hansen

“You have to remember that he is an England player, all things are considered in the heat of the moment” – Graham Poll

“What fight?” – FA spokessman

“He takesa me legso awaya and da referra senta me offa. He is Stevie GBH” – A. Foreigner

Defrence calls Match of The Day:

“Steven Gerrard is never in the wrong.”

Case dismissed.
