EX-CARDIFF LOAN MAN IN MORE TROUBLE

KERREA GILBERT, a temporary loan star at Cardiff City, has hit another career low with confirmation that he faces trial next January following an charge of being drunk and disorderly after police were called to an incident on September 24th, less than 2 days before a game.

Two seasons ago, Gilbert shone for Cardiff City while they were runaway Championship leaders while on loan from Arsenal but City's rapid fall coincided with his own after he went AWOL on the club midst rumours of personal problems. He returned and saw the season out but never looked the same player.

Last season, he was loaned last season to Southend United but fell into more problems with the club management after refusing to play in a reserve game and he subsequently managed just 5 starts in a 5 month loan before returning to the Gunners in January.

Overlooked in North London, the 21 yr old is now on loan at current League One joint leaders Leicester City where he is shown signs of turning things around having started 12 times this season.
