Ray Wilkins RIP

Thing is, if he was just some normal bloke he probably wouldn’t be in a coma right now. You or me would have no doubt been banged up for being caught drink driving for a third time. Prison would have restricted his access to alcohol meaning less chance of him getting shit faced, having a heart attack and crashing head first into a table. My fonest memory of Raymond was when he got sent off in the world cup for throwing the ball at the referree. That and his more recent pissed up ramblings about Sevilla being bottom six if they were in the prem. Hope he pulls through.

Unlikey a normal bloke would go to prison either. A band B or band C fine would be the most likely outcome, assuming the offences were ‘only’ drink driving (not dangerous driving).

I am not sure I agree with that.

A third drink driving inside the statutory ten year limit would probably trigger an "all options" report from probation. The most likely outcome would be a community order or maybe a suspended prison sentence with unpaid work and a rehabilation days to address his drinking and his thinking skills (in particular in regards to TalkSport, Chelsea and United)

A fine is well outside the guidelines.
