Aston Villa player, Nathan Baker sold his five tickets from the club for the match against Manchester United for £200 each on Facebook!
Eighteen year old nipper Nathan said, ‘I wish to apologise unreservedly to the fans for my actions .I appreciate it is a privilege to be part of Aston Villa Football Club and one day I hope to play in the first team, but I understand that my behaviour off the pitch must speak as loudly as my actions on the pitch.’
Not quite up there with sleeping with a team mate’s ex, parking in a disabled space, urinating in a pint pot in a night club or indeed having your old man revealed as a cocaine dealer, but well done Nathan all the same.
From little acorns, great oaks do grow…
