Troy Deeney has opened up on his time in prison.
In 2012, Deeney, was sentenced to 10 months in prison after he pleaded guilty to a charge of affray.
Speaking on the Happy Hour podcast he said,
“So I went to K-Wing, which is like a working wing for people that aren’t really in trouble or workers.
“I go there, and the guy (prison guard) goes – I’ve got my little bag of stuff – and he goes: ‘Troy, you’re in room… I say room – cell’. And then ‘just to let you know, they’ve all got the paper, so they all know who you are – good luck! And he pushed me in and shut the door.”
Deeney was released after almost three months of his sentence.
No-one will ever forget his dramatic play-off winner.
