Wilkins charged with drink-driving

Former Chelsea assistant manager Ray Wilkins has been charged with drink-driving following a youth football awards ceremony.

The 55-year-old was pulled over by police in the early hours of Monday morning and was breathalysed outside his home in Surrey after leaving the bash in Sandford Holiday Park in Bournemouth.

It is believed that a number of guests at the ceremony complained about the former Manchester United player's behaviour on Twitter, according to the Daily Mail.

Wilkins was released on bail and is due to appear at North Surrey Magistrates' Court on May 21.
