| Lee Hughes: In trouble once again |
Notts County have confirmed that bad-boy striker Lee Hughes is in trouble again - this time on suspicion of an alleged sexual assault.
A Metropolitan Police spokesman confirmed the striker has been released on bale, having been taken into custody following the alleged incident involving a woman at the team's hotel in Croydon the night before an FA Cup fixture against Sutton United.
A club statement said: Notts County can confirm that the club are aware of an alleged incident involving one of our players at the team's hotel on Saturday, December 3.
'As this is a police matter, the club will be making no further comment on this incident.'
This latest incident comes seven years after the former West Bromwich Albion player was imprisoned for six years after being found guilty of causing death by dangerous driving on a road near Coventry in his £100,000 Mercedes.
Hughes - who did not turn himself into police for 36 hours - was eventually released from prison in 2007 and has been able to pick up the pieces of his football career, first with Oldham Athletic before moving to Notts County in 2009.
His arrest comes just a day after another former West Bromwich Albion star, Ronnie Wallwork, was jailed for his part in a stolen car buyer scam!
