Premier League boss banned from driving

  • Crystal Palace manager Oliver Glasner has been disqualified from driving for six months after being caught speeding in London.
  • Glasner was detected driving his BMW at 29mph in a 20mph zone on the Old Kent Road in Bermondsey last July.
  • The Austrian football manager had previous driving offences, and the additional penalty points from this incident triggered an automatic ban.
  • He formally pleaded guilty in writing and submitted a handwritten note to Willesden Magistrates’ Court, accepting responsibility and vowing not to re-offend.
  • Alongside the six-month ban, Glasner was ordered to pay a total financial penalty exceeding £1,000, including a £660 fine.
