    A few mouthfuls of sherry trifle would probably put you over the limit these days

    No, it wouldn't. There's no excuse here.

    If found guilty, I hope he get's the punishment he deserves and, if he has an issue, the help he needs.

    I doubt it. Anyway, he's always liked a drink - maybe no more or less than a lot of folk, but he has to stick to the same rules as everyone else.

    Doesn't matter - he must have been driving like a dick to get pulled over in the first place.

    Not necessarily - maybe someone suspected he was over the limit and reported him to the Police

    I don't think so but even if it did the responsibility not to consume the sherry trifle before driving would still apply. Will get what he deserves if found guilty, criminal conviction, driving ban and probably a fine. Can count himself lucky his job is not dependent on driving, or he would lose it.

    I can never understand why people on his sort of salary don't just call a taxi or arrange for a driver to take them home if they feel they must drink on a night out. Dangerous behaviour.

    So if you are driving later then have ordinary trifle or ice cream and jelly. Surely not that hard a decision?

    Did he have a platinum blonde with silicon assets in the car with him? I believe Rooney's lady friend is still on the lookout for somebody in football.

    Best he was caught this way rather than the Luke McCormack way.
    Hopefully he will never do this again.

    Nah, she wanted someone that looked like a football.

    Hope the drink problem rumours that were circulating when he didn't get the Hibs job aren't true. Was my favourite player as a youngster. Hopefully this is a wake up call for him.

    The irony is when he was on sportsound a few months ago and questioned about that time and the rumours/smear campaign he laughed and said he didn't have time to drink as he was driving all over the place at the time.

    That's not irony, that's actual scary. He clearly likes a bevy, so did Fenlon. As does Lenny. Massive mistake ultimately not giving Michael the job at the time appointing Pat though, I don't think drinking was behind the reasoning so he does come across as bitter(pardon the pun) in that aspect.

    No it's definitely irony. You have no clue as to his drinking habits.

    I have no knowledge of O'Neils drinking habit , but His nose and face suggest he is drinking too much alcohol ..there may be other reasons,but if this is an issue - I hope this triggers him to reach out for help

    Rosacea could be the cause People with that condition often get labelled drinkers
