Hugo Lloris

So he basically had 2 pints, or more likely a couple of glasses of wine all evening? I don’t think anyone’s saying it’s ok, but let’s get some perspective.

Forensics show that the body processes one unit per hour. Alcohol only hits the system after one hour from starting drinking. It is from the hour after that that the alcohol starts to process.

So a bottle of wine @ 14% volume could give a positive reading at 1.00am whereas a bottle @12% could give a negative reading.

And we have to consider when the official test was taken.
 
Amusing all those trying to let him off purely on the basis he plays for Spurs.

If found guilty, he committed a crime and put himself and others in extreme danger by driving drunk. There should be no forgiveness and a punishment handed down just as it would if a “normal” member of society were found guilty of the same crime

Who were those trying to let him off?

He is being punished in the same way as anyone else, only much worse as it’s in national news papers!!!

Indeed, i wonder how many would be so understanding if it was Salah, Hazard or another who plays for our rivals.

Was Lloris in a crash or did he cause any injury whatsoever? Technically everyone who drives is putting people in danger. I don't see how Lloris put people in "extreme danger" though. That's overstating things.

Did I miss the posts that said he should be let off or something?

Would be good if you two could quote the people who said we should do that. I find it hard to believe anyone who said that on here was being serious, but difficult to judge when I don’t know who or what posts you are referring to.

Like you i do not remember reading anyone said he should be let off that WILL not happen, he has been charged and should be punished within the law.

However are you really saying that IF it had been Salah ( or another rival player) they would be given as much understanding??
 
I’m sure there is still some stuff about how it gets metabolised for people with different builds etc you but google tells me these are the numbers of recent drink driving footballers. Think only Gibson was actually punished by his club and he left the scene if the accident.

Rooney 104
Toure 75
Gibson (2nd time) 57
Firminho 46
Alonso 93
Lloris 80


Ant or Dec from Ant and Dec 75

I may be mistaken but is it not driving under the influence and not drunk driving.
Not excusing Hugo, or anyone else, the law is the law but you can be driving under the influence and not be drunk.
You don't need to be drunk to fail the test.

Are you likely to be drunk if you are over twice the drink-drive limit?

I will be blunt. You have directed your comments on this matter as though anyone who does not agree with every letter of your post is “trying to let him off”. Which is NOT the case whatsoever. In fact, and I most certainly include myself, I have not seen ANYONE say he should “escape punishment”. I have seen no-one dispute that whatsoever.

Forgiveness? Absolutely! If someone shows responsibility for their actions and a spirit of not intending to do “it” again, then absolutely, they SHOULD be forgiven as a mistake is a mistake. Speculating on what COULD have happened is a waste of time. It didn’t - thankfully.

How many times have you sat with friends at a bar and taken their keys because they might be a little over? If you can say “every time”’then your pronouncements have weight.

In Scotland the limit is less than a pint, so if you are twice over the limit you've had two pints, most people wouldn't consider that to be drunk. Therefore the law you are breaking isn't drunk driving but driving under the influence.

I think it's fair to simply ask: how did you react to Firminho's drink-drive charge?

I can honestly say I didn't.
I assume that the law takes care of these matters and that the person in question -unless a tosser- feels stupid and ashamed, then vows never to do it again.
I don't even remember when it happened.
