Premier League footballer Barry Bannan has been charged with four motoring offences following a crash on the M1 in Nottinghamshire last month.
The Aston Villa and Scotland midfielder was charged with drinking and driving and failing to stop after an accident.
Mr Bannan, 21, is also accused of driving a motor vehicle otherwise than in accordance with a licence and driving without due care and attention.
He was bailed to appear at Nottingham Magistrates' Court on 25 November.
Mr Bannan, of Sutton Coldfield, West Midlands, was involved in a single vehicle crash that happened on the southbound carriageway near Watnall on 23 October.
Shrewsbury Town striker James Collins, 20, who was arrested and bailed in connection with the same incident, will not face charges.

Was pretty funny, all that weekend he'd been tweeting how he was super bored and wanted something to do. The on Monday the story was in the news and his twitter account had been deleted.

Hopefully Villa decide on a set punishment for him (or have they?) so he can get back to playing. One of my favourite players at the moment. Darren Fletcher also mentioned that hes been pretty quiet since it happened, hes usually the 'bubbly' one.

You two really do need something to fill your time with.

Meh, silly muppet. He's young, and young people with that much money often do stupid things. He's made a mistake, nobody was harmed, so I'm not going to condemn him for it. Frankly, this transgression is truly minor compared to the kind of stuff other footballers are doing off the pitch.

Well he's suspended at the mo, so I reckon he'll sit a few games out. That likely means Heskey back in midfield. Joy...

You need to fill something else other than Barry Bannan.

Don't worry, if his wife keeps cooking you won't have to put up with Heskey much longer...

Pretty stupid, but it seems no footballer has brains these days, never mind common sense.

Emile Ivanhoe Heskey is a brilliant midfielder, one of the best in the country! Why are you annoyed GC!? But in all seriousness, it was a very stupid action and may cost Villa as well as himself. At least he has an excuse that he is young; what excuse does Tevez (refusing to come on) or Ronaldo (crashing his car) have, exactly?

And GC, are you going to start bumming Ciaran Clark next?

 

[GodCubed]

Judging from his Twitter, he's in London and will be playing tomorrow.

People have done worse, it's stupid but yeah, he has an excuse, he's young, famous and rich.
