How did this sort of thing ever get forgotten? This is from 2006:

Gambler, womaniser, drinker and brawler. So that's why John Terry has been made captain of England

John Terry
For millions of children, the England football captain is the ultimate role model.
So one might have expected when manager Steve McClaren chose his new skipper he would opt for a player with an unblemished reputation.
More
• Terry named new England captain
• Terry 'fantastic' choice for England skipper
• Factfile: John Terry
• Mourinho: Terry deserves it
Instead, John Terry - the defender with a reputation for gambling, drinking and womanising - was appointed as the nation's ambassador on the pitch.
And while McClaren hailed the 25-year-old successor to David Beckham for having "all the attributes an international captain needs", a discreet veil was drawn over the less savoury side to Terry's character.
For the £100,000-a-week Chelsea star has a chequered off-field history which makes him something of a hostage to fortune.
Despite his undoubted prowess on the pitch, the increased media scrutiny to which he will inevitably be subjected means his new role - which he earned above the squeaky-clean Steven Gerrard - could prove to be something of a banana skin.
Raised on the same estate in Barking, Essex, where his hero Bobby Moore grew up, forklift truck driver's son Terry made his debut for Chelsea aged 17.
But as his reputation on the field and his earnings grew, it was not long before he gained the unwelcome tag as a member of the Premier League's 'Shame United First XI'.
In the immediate aftermath of September 11, 2001, he and Chelsea team-mates Frank Lampard, Eidur Gudjohnsen and Jody Morris were accused of drunkenly mocking American tourists at Heathrow, stripping naked, laughing and vomiting.
'I'm certain I've got the right man in John Terry'
Having paid his share of the £130,000 fines imposed by Chelsea, Terry was then involved in a 1.30am fracas at London's Wellington nightclub in 2002 in which a doorman was injured.
He was arrested, spent a night in the cells but was later cleared of charges of wounding with intent to cause grievous bodily harm, unlawful wounding, possessing a bottle as an offensive weapon and affray.
In 2004, Terry's passion for gambling emerged. He was reportedly one of three Chelsea stars, along with Wayne Bridge and Scott Parker, said to have risked £40,000 a week between them on horse and dog races.
One day, Terry and Bridge were said to have blown £13,000 in three hours as they clutched rolls of £50 notes and enjoyed the 'buzz' at Coral's betting shop in Cobham, Surrey.
Earlier this year, Terry was reported to be one of the England players believed to have allegedly used Steve Smith as a betting agent.
Michael Owen introduced Smith, a business partner of his, to Wayne Rooney who then ran up a £700,000 gambling debt, causing a rift between the two strikers and throwing England's World Cup preparations into turmoil. Meanwhile, Terry's love life has been no less colourful. He is engaged to beautician Toni Poole, 24, and in their first seven years together is said to have strayed at least eight times, but has always been forgiven.
Last September, he said: "I really regret what I've done to Toni. I'm not going to cheat on her ever again and want to marry her more than anything in the world."
But two months later lurid revelations were made in The Sun about how Terry enjoyed a passionate clinch in his £100,000 Bentley with a busty teenager who had asked for his autograph and then sent her lewd text messages suggesting a threesome with one of her friends.
In an interview with the Daily Mail's soccer correspondent Matt Lawton last year, Terry said he had cleaned up his act after the nightclub bouncer incident and liked to spend his spare time fishing. "I had to learn from my experiences, and I like to think I've grown into a good bloke," he said.
He added: "I had to sort myself out really. I wasn't as bad as some people tried to make out."
The new boss McClaren said: "I'm certain I've got the right man in John Terry. I'm convinced he will prove to be one of the best captains England has ever had."
For his part, Terry said: "I am very proud to be given this great opportunity."

John Terry's £4m mortgage mystery
Ian Gallagher, Mail on Sunday
7 February 2010, 11:02am
Questions were raised last night about the state of John Terry's finances after it was revealed that the mortgage on his Surrey mansion is now almost twice the value of the property when he bought it.
Land registry documents show that the Chelsea star - sacked as captain of England on Friday - purchased the house in Oxshott for £2.25m in July 2003. But in January last year he took out a mortgage with Queen's banker Coutts to the value of £3.95m.
Financial experts believe the move is unusual, particularly for a man earning £170,000 a week. Denying any suggestion of money problems, however, his agent insisted last night that the footballer was simply taking advantage of a generous rate of interest to fund other property deals.
At the same time Terry continues to be beset by rumours about gambling problems, although sources close to the defender say he 'doesn't bet on the scale he did in the past'. However, he still has an account with a bookmaker specialising in wealthy private clients which friends insist he pays off in full every month.

@Cleavers - I hope my posts are OK. Only quoting info that is already in the public domain, i.e. published by other (quoted) sources already.
