CHOPRA IN REHAB


Cue that Amy Winehouse tune

They wanted him on loan at Cardiff but he said 'no, no, no'


They said he might come back here but he said 'I won't go'


But since Chopra got married, his life's become a mess


So they tried to make his go to rehab and he said 'yes yes yes'.




They were the days!


Today's Daily Mirror has reported that ex-City star Michael Chopra, a player City tentatively tried to get back on loan, has checked into the Sporting Chance rehab clinic for a week to help him with gambling and relationship issues with the blessing of his club, Sunderland. His problems reached a new low with police reported to have been called to an incident with Chops causing a scene at a home, believed to be where his estranged wife now resides, in the early hours of last Monday.

Chops appears to have been frittering huge sums of his £20k a week wages - the perils of vastly overpaid footballers losing a sense of reality - and is struggling at the state of his marriage which blog reported over summer saw Chops and the wife having a vicious argument the day after their marriage and go their separate ways on honeymoon.




It's hard to have too much sympathy on the one hand when he has opportunites and wealth most of us will never understand but it is a personal human issue so I hope he sorts himself out.
