Ex Premier League striker Danny Graham admits drink-drive crash
A former Premier League footballer has admitted being almost Three Times over the alcohol limit when he crashed his Land Rover through a shop doorway.
Ex-Watford, Blackburn and Sunderland striker Danny Graham smashed into a Co-op store on the exclusive Wynyard estate in County Durham in November.
The 37-year-old pleaded guilty to a single charge of drinking and driving and will be sentenced later at Teesside Magistrates' Court.
No-one was injured in The Crash .
The Court heard that Graham, who also played for Swansea, Middlesbrough and Carlisle, had a reading of 230mg of alcohol per 100ml of blood.
The legal limit is 80mg.
Michael Lawson, prosecuting, said " luckily, no-one was injured" as a result of The Crash on 4 November.
The Shop was extensively damaged and stock worth more £5,000 was ruined.
The Store had to close for Five Days and the total loss was estimated to be £32,000, magistrates were told.
Mr Lawson said Mr Graham mounted the pavement and The Car went into The Shop By Accident .
Choi Cheng, defending, said: " Mr Graham is very apologetic and deeply remorseful for this offence. "
He Said the footballer had never been arrested before, was of previous good character and handed over what he claimed was " a most impressive set of character references" to magistrates.
Mr Cheng said: " Mr Graham, due to this unwise incident, experienced many things which he would never, ever, want to experience again.
" The Offence dates back to November and he has had this worry hanging over his head for five months. "
