Bad news, Madds Timm is very good, can't understand why Fergie never gave him a run out. Don't know the other kid.

And it'll be hard to get a look while sitting in jail. :(

What is it with kids these days and their rock'em sock'em robots, their spire-o-graphs, and their hoola hoops. It's just not the same, anymore.

Guilty of Reckless Driving
Timm gets 12 months
Flanagan gets 8 months
No community service for either player. I think it would have been better to have them out in communities helping poor kids. It would make them see how well they have it. The authorities are coming down hard on driving restrictions against these kids and there fast cars. Remember Jermaine Pennant just got 3 months.
Now that they're in jail, I think United should cancel their contracts. They were okay players, but they messed up off the pitch. They probably weren't ever going to be first team players anyway, now they are just an embarassment to a great club. The club doesn't even mention it on their website.

Madds Timm is highly over rated and is well known for struting round OT full of himself hope this might be the kick up his arse needed, and to plead not guilty so receiveing a higher sentence just sums up the arrogance of the lad!!

He apparently had an attitude problem, but imo he's wasn't overrated. He has all the talent in the world, remember seeing him attempt a reverse back heel volley one time. Damn shame really.

Another article stated that they were racing up to 65 mph on a road with a limit of 20 mph. One crashed head-on and a woman was injured.
