Now football vs alcohol

Last day I reported that there was a cricket player who had to go to the rehabilitation centre for the 2nd time and now choose either cricket or alcohol.

Today another player had to pay for drinking.

Chelsea and Nigeria's John Obi Mikel has been charged with drinking and driving, police confirmed Monday.

The 21-year-old was stopped by police at 5.30am (0530GMT) on Saturday, after being seen driving his Range Rover "erratically" near his club's ground in London's Fulham Road.

Mikel was not a member of the Chelsea team which beat Ipswich 3-1 at home in the FA Cup fourth round later Saturday.

He is due to appear at West London Magistrates' Court on April 3.
