One of our ex academy lads has unfortunately landed himself in trouble:
An ex-footballer who crashed a stolen van into a fence and threw a loaded revolver into a family's garden while on the run from police has been jailed.
Luke Thomas, who represented Nottingham Forest before a knee injury curtailed his career, admitted acting as a "courier" on 10 June last year.
Nottingham Crown Court heard he had become depressed after the injury.
The 20-year-old admitted possessing a firearm and ammunition, as well as dangerous driving.
He was jailed for five years and eight months and disqualified from driving for 44 months.
