Colin Hendry’s Chaotic Own Goal…
In a saga wilder than a squirrel on a skateboard, former Manchester City titan, Colin Hendry, found himself deep in the penalty box of life. The once roaring lion of defense turned into a pesky mosquito, buzzing around his ex-partner like an ill-placed free kick. Now, instead of dodging tackles, he’s got a 12-month community service hat-trick and a restraining order sending him to the stands. It seems Hendry’s play-for-keeps passion got a red card from Preston’s referees of the law!
The former Scotland captain didn’t just stop at being blocked. Oh no, he bent the rules like Beckham bends a ball! By using a sneaky collection of email accounts and no caller ID, he was determined to connect like an overzealous Wi-Fi signal. The court heard that when his calls played ghost, the man became a digital Houdini. Even LinkedIn wasn’t safe from his curious tactics! His gifts of flowers were filed under “fouls” by his bewildered ex, who said Hendry left her feeling like a goalie in a penalty shootout with no goalie gloves!
But wait, there’s more: Hendry, claiming he was just concerned about her and her furry sidekick, allegedly had a blind spot the size of a football pitch. Even after police cautioned him with a verbal yellow card, our ex-defender kept on his relentless pursuit as if chasing a runaway championship trophy. His final whistle: admitting one count of non-violent harassment. Reminder to all footballers — mind the boundary lines off the pitch too!
