John Terry, Chelsea defender, has a faced further shame after his father; Ted Terry was caught dealing drugs, adding to the damage that has been done to his reputation in the last 12 months. The former England captain was still suffering the effects of his affair with an ex-girlfriend of England team-mate Wayne Bridge, when an undercover reporter was sold cocaine by his father, 55, in an Essex bar.
Terry’s father was caught on camera arranging to supply three grams of the class A drug to an undercover reporter at a price of 120, making 40 profit. He was recorded saying “The stuff’s all right, I get off on it.”
Ted Terry, who’s son is on 170,000 a week, tried to convince the ‘customer’ not to mention where it came from. “This is between me and you,” he said. “Don’t tell him I’m John Terry’s dad.” He will appear at Basildon Magistrates Court on May 13th.
He faces a maximum sentence of 6 months or a 5,000 fine if he is convicted. Last year Terry’s mother Sue and his mother-in-law both accepted a caution for shoplifting in Marks & Spencer last year.
It is another devastating hit to his image after the scandal involving his affair with the ex-girlfriend of his England teammate Wayne Bridge. The disaster cost Terry his England captaincy and Bridge reluctantly quit the team ahead of the World cup in South Africa this June. John, who has an estimated fortune of 10million, reportedly knew nothing about the alleged drug dealing.
Terry could face huge repercussions of the actions of his father if his name continues to tarnish British football with suggestions that he might lose his position in the England team and his Chelsea captaincy. After his affair and his mother’s shoplifting incident, Terry has faced numerous abusive chants from fans of his team and the opposition. Something which is said to be taking it’s toll on his moral and ability to concentrate in the game.
Terry might want to look into doing some law recruitment as it looks like he could use his own legal team to advise him and his family on what not to do, if he wants to keep earning 170k a week that is! Visit Prodo for the best SEO Chester
