Peter Shilton banned from driving for 20 months for drink-driving

Former England goalkeeper Peter Shilton has been hit with a 20-month driving ban after admitting to drink-driving.

The 63-year-old was arrested in Colchester on February 24 for driving with excess alcohol in his system, which amounted to more than double the legal limit.

Magistrates have ordered Shilton to pay fines of £1,020 and be off the road for one year and eight months, according to BBC News.

Shilton, who was stopped in a Jaguar XF near the home of his girlfriend Stephanie Hayward, is England's most-capped footballer.
