He spends a fortune in the bookies at Forest Hall, from what I can gather. Mind, if they're used to the regulars from the Scotsman, £50 is probably considered a fortune.

 

My sister used to manage that shop until recently and he was a regular visitor often putting hundreds into the machines. Not a very pleasant person by all accounts.

 

On the more positive side, my sister is now managing the shop in Ponteland and James Perch gets in now and again, putting on a £20 bet. Top lad she says and very polite too.

He's simply not going to change his spending habits, move into a smaller house, spend less on gambling, naff clothes and cars and stupid mates etc.  He's going to continue living in the lifestyle to which he's become accustomed to on the wages we were giving him until his payoff and any savings have dried up.  Then it's back to a life of petty crime.

Nile Ranger was handed a 12-month community order on Tuesday for pulling his girlfriend's hair during a row. The troubled former Premier League striker admitted common assault on Shakira Bicar outside Newcastle's Gate entertainment complex at around 7pm on 13 March.

 

Ranger was released by Newcastle United last month following a series of off-pitch problems and his solicitor said the 21-year-old hoped to resume his football career in the summer.

 

Newcastle magistrates court heard that the row happened when Bicar was out with a male work colleague to organise a social event. Ranger repeatedly contacted her on her phone and the couple then argued in the street.

 

Witnesses heard him tell someone on the phone: "I'm going to grab her". During a struggle, she kicked his leg and he pulled her by the hair towards the Gate car park in Newcastle's city centre. Witnesses called the police and, when he was arrested, he told officers: "I grabbed her, yeah, I grabbed her".

 

Chris Robinson, chairman of the bench, ordered Ranger to carry out 120 hours of unpaid work during a 12-month community order, nine months of which will be supervised.

 

Ranger offered to pay the £85 costs and a £60 victim surcharge immediately. No order was made for compensation as there was a possibility of reconciliation, the court heard. Robinson said Ranger must also address "gambling issues" which were not mentioned in open court.

 

Ranger, who wore a grey suit, white shirt, black tie and black trainers for the hearing, declined to comment as he left court and was driven away in an Audi A3.

 

During the hearing, Geoffrey Forrester, defending, said Ranger, who pleaded guilty at the first opportunity, "regrets his behaviour and apologises for it".

 

Forrester added: "He has paid a heavy price for this. He has had to leave Newcastle United FC by way of settlement. It was not something he wanted to do. He brought it upon himself, he has to move on with his life."

 

The solicitor said Ranger would welcome unpaid work to "give something back" and make amends for his behaviour, before resuming his football career in the summer.

 

Bicar, Ranger's girlfriend for three years, did not make a complaint to police but did tell officers at the scene that she had a sore neck. She said later she did not want a restraining order put in place.

 

The court heard that there had been previous "domestic incidents" between the couple at Ranger's house in Forest Hall, North Tyneside, which required the police, but there had never been a formal complaint.

 

Dealing with Ranger's previous convictions for drink-driving, battery and being drunk and disorderly, Forrester said they happened within a six-week period in autumn 2011, and that the battery offences for which he was given a 12-month conditional discharge happened when he struggled with police having been racially abused in the street by others.

Utter turd of a human being. Just know a bigger crime and sentence is coming to him, which is a shame as it would have been interesting to find out how good a footballer he could have been.

 

He couldn't hit a cow's arse with a drive-by.

He probably does have the talent to make a half decent (championship) striker at least, its just a shame he doesn't have the attitude or desire to make it. He will end up put away sometime in the future, and maybe then he will look back and realize what he wasted...
