MJ01 Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 When the judge sentenced him to 2 & a half years, Becker asked how many months that was The judge replied "30, love" I'm here all week... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tipstaff Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 I agree with El Cid. Either his arrogance or his ignorance (or both) led to this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baron99 Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Saw for British No. 1, John Lloyd (I can't remember when he was number 1, think it was back in 1872?), this morning on the BBC from his home in the US, basically defending Becker & stating it was "TRAGEDY" he has been gaoled for his crime. Just shows you that some people as he EXPECTED at worse a suspended sentence. Just shows you the multi-millionaires & their friends expect that their status & lifestyle believes the it gives the preferential treatment to the rest of the population when it comes to crime. It's to be hoped that on Becker's release the BBC license fee payed money is not spent by the BBC having Becker interviewing him on his "traumatic" time spent in prison? I see from a few postings ago that Katie Price's name has be mentioned. She should have been gaoled years ago. Might have taught her a lesson?

pattricia Posted April 30, 2022 Share Posted April 30, 2022 Same thing happened to Gazza. When they are at their peak and earning the most they don’t get advice. Their fans fuss over them and they soon spend it on daft things. Boris was renting a house in Wimbledon for £22,000 per month ! I would have liked to have been that landlord !
