People at your club who were actual prisoners

[HORN]

I’m struggling to think of a goalkeeper but apart from that I could probably name a Newport convicts XI.

[MrLeam]

Others I can think of are Gary Madine, Marlon King, Duncan Fergusson. Ched Evans obviously did time too. I vaguely remember Nathan Blake having been in trouble for theft (leading to Blades fans serenading him with "He's black, he's mean, he robbed a fruit machine") but I'm not sure if he did time for that. Edinburgh City recently signed a convicted sex offender (Craig Thomson) but, again, I don't think he went to prison...

Not my club but heard a great story about Robin Friday, when he was at Cardiff he didn't turn up at pre season training much to the managers anger, the following week they were playing a pre season friendly and one of the subs heard a banging on the back of the dugout. It was Friday "tell the boss I'll be back on Monday" he got a three month sentence for stealing lead off a church roof but managed to get released early for good behaviour

[Patrick Thistle]

Not sure any went to prison but there was a group of bad boys playing for Shrewsbury in the early naughties who got into bother with the police.

[JM Footzee]

Troy Deeney at Watford, obviously.

[MrLeam]

Not as interesting as the thread on players with parents who were political prisoners, but would be interesting to know. There's some obviously relatively well-known names, but I'd be guessing three or four at one team would be pretty good (bad?) going...
