A disgraceful decision, based around money and influence - as already said if a working class bloke had done the same Barlow & co would rightly expect the book to be thrown at them. Why has Vic been so quiet on such as subject, he just loves his cronies doesnt he.

Mind you, I have been the grateful recipient of tickets via the Bianchis for numerous Man United away games where tickets were hard to come by, its who you know afterall.

I cant imagine Bianchi will be overly worried by Epsilons boycott by the way.

   I wonder what kind of a discount the magistrate who dealt with this case will get the next time he shops at Arighi Bianchi store,the whole thing stinks. macc-lad

   Would Wayne from the council estaste who is on benefits but loves his kids have got off so lightly?

I don't think so either.

   Well one thing's for sure, I'll never shop at Arighi Bianchi again.

   I read that he was not too drunk to remember, just that he chose not to as he was trying to evade justice, which he managed to do with the help of the pathetic magistrate(s).

He was drunk driving, and not by reports for the first time. Had it been one of his firms drivers they would have been sacked, family consequences or not.

   Chairman of the bench Clive Bates told the defendant: "Looking at your previous record I would have no hesitation to putting you into an immediate custodial sentence.

So he's done it before??!!

   If this "bloody fool" had killed an innocent, random person while apparently being so drunk he couldn't even remember driving, would it not have unnecessarily and permanently devastated that person's family far more than temporary separation, after 50% of which he'd have been released for good behaviour anyway? I know what I think of him, and "bloody fool" doesn't even begin to scratch the surface.

   Typical UK Justice System, If you have a bit of money and the right connections your going to walk. If he had been just a lad from one of the estates in Macc he would have been locked up. Somebody should ask for a Retrial !!!

   Justice.......just totally disgraceful. No wonder they look happy. I will never step foot in the Bianchi store again.

   Disgusting. A slap on the wrist and a "don't do it again". But then again it's who you know isn't it?
