He's a tottering hotspur! Worse-for-wear footballer Ledley King is helped out of nightclub
Last updated at 17:20pm on 11.08.08
He's been struggling with injury, so it's nice to see Tottenham Hotspur captain Ledley King taking his pre-season training so seriously.
The 27-year-old defender geared up for Saturday's start of the Premier League season by getting so hammered that he had to be carried out of a nightclub.
Led-less: Ledley King, his jeans falling down, being helped out of the club last night by security and friends
Ledley was helped out of the back door of Faces nightclub in Gants Hill early today after a night with his pals.
Not only was he having trouble standing, his trousers were having trouble staying up as they slipped down his backside.
And his flies were undone - a fine example to his teammates.
Trousers akimbo: Not only did Ledley have trouble standing up, but he also had problems keeping his trousers on
An onlooker said: "He was in a bit of a state and staff tried to sneak him out the back way. He had been in the VIP section with male friends, and had been laying into the champagne and vodka cocktails.
"But as the bouncers carried him to his waiting car, the final humiliation was his pants falling down. It was comical."
Ledley's pals weren't so amused, and one is alleged to have smashed a photographer's camera against a car window.

More humiliation in that not only were his trousers falling down but his underpants are on inside out....so he can't even manage to put his underwear on properly in the morning when he is sober! Another fine photo example of a premiership footballer's behaviour for Britain's youth to copy...
