Leo No.8 Posted August 15, 2006 Posted August 15, 2006 Football player crashes into home A Norfolk couple were woken in the night after a car driven by Newcastle United defender Titus Bramble crashed into the wall outside their house. It happened on the A140 in the village of Newton Flotman on Saturday night. A Norfolk Police spokesman said five or six people were travelling in the BMW but no-one was injured. Mr Bramble was given a breath test which was negative. Eddie Sargent, 55, who lives in the house, said he and wife Linda, 54, were concerned for the people in the car. The couple were looking after their grandchildren at the time of the crash. 'Good looking' Mr Sargent said: "We just heard an incredible bang. "The car was full of people and they all got out and went across the road. "I never spoke to Titus, he kept a low profile. I was more concerned about the damage." Mr Sargent said he and his wife did not recognise Mr Bramble: "The police handed us his details for the insurance claim and my wife said 'what a lovely name' and 'wasn't he good looking'. "It wasn't until we telephoned the insurers this morning that they asked 'Is that the Titus Bramble?'" http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/4788145.stm
Gilps Posted August 15, 2006 Posted August 15, 2006 LOL! Titus Shambles as clumsy in everyday life as he is on the pitch.

Bootle Buck Posted August 15, 2006 Posted August 15, 2006 I still get a kick out of the reception he got at Anfield. Brilliant

Absolutely - and whilst playercam is on him, they should play the music from Benny Hill throughout. I've never really seen the point of playercam, but suddenly I see possibilities...

Sir Tokyo Sexwale Posted August 15, 2006 Posted August 15, 2006 Bramble got done not long ago - a couple of years, maybe - for doing (I think it was) 90 in Newcastle in his car, without a passenger & without a full licence. Practically got away with it too

In 1977, no-one died. In 1978, no-one died. In 1979, no-one died. In 1980... someone died. In 1981, no-one died. In 1982 there was the incident with the pigeon. In 1983, no-one died. In 1984, no-one died. In 1985, no-one died. In 1986... I mean, I could go on.
