Watford fan but let's not forget the reason he went to prison:" Deeney was sentenced to ten months' imprisonment after pleading guilty to a charge of affray, having attacked a group of students outside a nightclub. The Guardian reported that a "30-second video clip, which was played to the court several times, clearly showed both Troy Deeney and Brennan [Deeney's friend] kicking out at the "defenceless" students, one of whom received repeated blows to the head as he lay injured," Important to tell the redemption story but also important to tell the reason he went to prison.

Thanks..i still haven't found out what he actually went to prison for

[@allansolomon2137]

Kicking a defenceless student in the head while on the ground and breaking his jaw. But I pleaded guilty straight away. Very decent of you considering it was all caught on CCTV. I had friends in jail .... says it all really.

As an Oldham Athletic fan, I remember Deeny playing for Walsall- he scored for them at their place. He looked a class above😮
Ever since then, I have kept an eye out for him in his career ( and his life)
I have to admit, that I have the utmost respect for the guy - rate him very highly both as a player and a bloke 💪✊️
