Colchester United accept Steve Bradshaw's resignation
9:13am Wednesday 23rd December 2009 in
THE Chief Executive of Colchester United has resigned after being arrested for drink-driving.
Steve Bradshaw, who took over the role just 12 months ago, was driving back to Clacton after a club Christmas party when he had a minor accident in Bradfield.
Police were called and routinely breathalysed the 43-year-old on December 14, where they discovered he was over the legal limit.
Mr Bradshaw has apologised for the “error of judgement” and immediately tendered his resignation.
This was yesterday accepted by the chairman of the club, Robbie Cowling.

I dont think any sober person thinks it's a good idea to drink and drive, have a few drinks though any thing is possible.

Many still excessively drink and then recklessly drive. When will people realise drinking and driving do not go together!
Livelihoods are lost through this very irresponsible attitude! But more importantly LIVES are lost....and some still go out and do it. They believe it won't ever happen to them!
Lets hope others learn from Steve's downfall.
