Footballer Filmed Drifting BMW Around Van and Driving at Nearly 200mph Jailed The sentencing of semi professional footballer Connor Charlton to four years in prison and a four year ban from driving has brought attention to a disturbing trend in modern sports culture.
Charlton, 32, was caught on camera drifting his BMW at nearly 200 miles per hour and engaging in a scam that allowed other drivers to escape penalty points.
Charlton plays for Nostell Miners Welfare in the Northern Counties East League, a relatively low key division far removed from top tier football.
