Sky Bet EFL 2019/20

[Adam]

Tom Lawrence and Mason Bennett of Derby County have been charged with drink driving. Both fine, Lawrence went to hospital as a precaution.

Did they crash into each other? Why have they both been arrested?

And it just keeps getting better:

Derby captain Richard Keogh is out for the season with a serious knee injury suffered in the collision. The club released a statement saying Keogh and a few team mates including Lawrence & Bennett stayed at a team-building night past a reasonable hour and got drunk, leading to this mess.

[The Lusophone]

Ridiculously unprofessional that.

Spoiler

Spoilered as fairly graphic image.

“Did it in training” 

Poor old Wayne Rooney is turning up a few months later, he’s missed all the drinking fun.

According to Blackburn Rovers player, the players left the scene of the accident with Keogh in the back of one of the cars unconscious.

They realised he was missing when they got back to one of their flats, proceeded to return to the scene and ambulances and police were already there tending to Keogh.

Lesson to be learned "don't speed when you've been drinking". Not only have they not learned a lesson, they don't even know what the fucking lesson is.

[Lineker]

What absolute fucking morons.

[FLiam]

Surprised this isn’t a bigger story across the main sports outlets. 

Sounds like they were pretty much racing each other whilst drunk. Could have gotten some innocent driver or pedestrian tangled in this stupidity. 

They should all be sacked to be honest.

It should be the main story at the moment but because it wasn't a huge club it's a little shunted out of the general coverage. Even Sky Sports News having to fill time desperately haven't really been all over it which you'd think they should be. It's absolutely unbelievable that it's happened. We'll get the stories like "(insert big club player here) spotted leaving nightclub after clubs defeat!" and we know that they'll be out and having a few drinks or whatever but for something so ridiculously off the rails to come of it you'd think it'd be THE sports story right now.

[MDK]

Maybe they can't report on it because of an ongoing police investigation? Leaving the scene of an accident is a crime, isn't it?

[Cymbols]

Has anyone been arrested?

[MDK]

I dunno, is this like the round in Whose Line is it Anyway when we can only ask questions?

[Adam]

Yes, Lawrence and Bennett are both charged with drunk driving offences.

Barnsley have sacked Daniel Stendel. So Joey Barton at Fleetwood has actually outlasted him.

Did Barton get charged in the end?

Yes. His bail lasts until tomorrow, I think.

[Adam]

Very harsh on Stendel. Got them up, had to deal with a lot of his best players being sold and he's not even had a dozen games to acclimatise to the Championship. 

[Lineker]

Sunderland have sacked Jack Ross.

My dad's heartbroken, Sol Campbell taken over at Southend.
