So , Duffy escapes with a fine and a ban, not because of privilege as a footballer. Oh

no, because he was a jolly nice chap and paid for the damage without going through insurance. Of course, the ability to do that has nothing to do with the privilege of being a huge earner.

So someone living month to month would have probably gone to prison.

Also they seemed happy that he would "reflect on his drinking" as I am sure he probably did when he did exactly the same 9 years ago.

I really hope we just release him. Poor human being, as well as being a poor footballer.
