Shackelele charged with Drink Driving

[robbiez666]

I thought you could be done in the passenger seat if you were pissed? If you had control over the car in any way.

And surely if he was on his own then how did he get there or was planning to get home?

What an pillock. He's been a total waste of money and now this.

I hope he's being fined.

It’s very near his house, I’d imagine he was on the way home drunk and passed a police car so he panicked and quickly shot in the park thinking the police wouldn’t see him if they did turn around and look for him.

Not enough dogging in this explanation IMO.

 

[raimond]

Drink driving - no excuse whatsoever.
Dogging- not for me but not one to judge.
Castleford - fucking unforgivable.

 

[robbiez666]

Of course

Sorry, I thought you said 'your' house.

Foolish of me. Obviously you don't do dogging at home.

Why didn't he just quietly accept the charges instead of having it plastered all over the news that he was found at a well known dogging site

my mate did similar laid on back seat sleeping it off still got banned, if he still lives in leeds job going as a driver

I worked with a bloke that did the same, the coppers woke him up the next morning and he blew over and was banned.

I’ve heard people say you should leave the car key outside the car and you can’t get done.

 

[Melbourne Blade]

Only 1 article from the sun a few years ago of any confirmed dogging activity in that nature reserve. Assume the players will be giving him shit for this and he'll have a new nickname.

I was once told by a copper if the keys in the ignition you're in for a tough time arguing your case

How long was your driving ban and how many points on your licence?

My licence is clean as a whistle! I can barely converse after half a pint never mind anything else anyway!

He would have got away with it if Paul Jewell and Neil Shipperley weren't sat in the back of the car.

...and he hadn't borrowed Stan Collymore's car .

A Championship footballer has appeared in court charged with drink driving.

Former Leeds United player Jamie Shackleton, who is now at Sheffield United, appeared at Leeds Magistrates' Court on Wednesday accused of being in charge of a motor vehicle when over the prescribed limit.

The court heard the 25-year-old blew 73 micrograms of alcohol per 100 millilitres of breath during a breathalyser test, more than double the legal limit of 35, after he was arrested at the Fairburn Ings nature reserve in Castleford on 21 December.

Mr Shackleton denied the offence and a trial date was set for 12 June at the same court.
Prosecuting, Melanie Ibbotson said police officers found Mr Shackleton, of Dovecote Drive in Ledston, Castleford, in the driving seat of a vehicle parked at the nature reserve.

The vehicle's lights were switched on, but its engine was not running, she said.

Mr Shackleton's solicitor Ben Whittingham said his client disputed being "in charge" of the vehicle.

Dressed in a suit, Mr Shackleton spoke only to confirm his name, date of birth and address.

He has made 12 appearances for the Blades since joining the club in July 2024. He came through the Leeds United academy.

Maybe not as bad as Mousett banging into a few cars on Abbeydale Road

I’ve heard people say you should leave the car key outside the car and you can’t get done.

…although security experts are advising against this.

 

[skyjam]

If he was alone in the car and it was his car then it would be difficult to argue against the charges.

oh

 

[BrisBlade]

Easily explained... Jamie's partner is a keen ornithologist and wanted to stop at a bird hide on their way home. Shaks wasn't keen as it was cold so stayed in the car. Unfortunately his missus got lost and ended up walking home when she happened across the main road. Shaks had a wee snifter of whisky to keep warm and the lights were on the vehicle so he could keep a look out for her. And that is when the police arrived, your honour.

The club should dismiss him. There’s absolutely no excuse for drink driving, especially when you’re on the money he earns in a month. I’ve seen first hand the pain families go through when they lose a loved one to drunk drivers. Footballers are supposed to be role models and the club should do the right thing and make a stand and sack him.

Yorkshire Dogging Locations

Three stages of the Tour De France were held in the UK in 2014, the first was Leeds to Harrogate, the second was York to Sheffield. The highest point on that section Holme Moss, is a well known Yorkshire Dogging Location. Couples regularly go up there to have sex and be watched by total...

what is the world coming to that man cant see some great tits & dog in peace

 

[The Crab]

Why on earth would you plead not guilty when you're bang to rights?

Because he’s got the fucking brains of a rocking horse

 

[The Crab]

I know Fairbairn Ings very well. Nice nature reserve, take the kids sometimes. There is a car park, it's not the sort of place you'd randomly end up at.

for clarity I don't take the kids dogging

Daddy, that man is trying to get that lady to give him a piggy back

Read this thread. Have we signed someone unannounced who's immediately taken his signing bonus, gone on the piss and then got pinged, or is in relation to an existing player that I can't work out?

 

[JOEYDEE]

Can anyone confirm if this is a dogging hotspot

Hope you're 'asking for a friend ' ..

 

[JOEYDEE]

I bet he’s in more bother with his Mrs than the coppers. Good job they didn’t look in the boot and find his ‘sex bag’.

Isn't that how Peter Sutcliffe was caught ?

 

[S64 Blade]

We don’t know what time it happened or who he was with. How much is the amount he’s been breathalysed at likely to be in pints? I know it’s dependent on the person, over what time frame etc. The limit is about 1 pint, so is double literally 2 pints?

Maybe he’d gone for a pub meal with his missus, had two pints, then gone for a walk after?

Less zesty than the dogging angle, but more likely.

It's too far drive from Arran mate.
