Fmr. Chelsea Player Jailed 9 Months

Former Chelsea and England striker Kerry Dixon was sent to jail for nine months on Friday for a 'shocking' assault on a fellow drinker at a pub in Dunstable.

Dixon, 53, slumped in his chair as he was read the punishment for causing actual bodily harm to 38-year-old father-of-two Ben Scoble, knocking him off a bar stool at the Nag's Head pub and then kicking and punching him eight times, causing two broken teeth and a fractured gum line.
