McCartney is Innocent

It appears that George McCartney is the innocent party in the aeroplane brawl with Keith Gillispie. Reports say that Gillispie boarded the plane drunk and within seconds lashed out at McCartney landing a number of punches to the West Ham player's face and body.

Gillespie slept for the rest of the flight home and was said to be dishevelled and disorientated when the plane landed three hours later.

It is reported that West Ham are to sue Sheffield United for £50 million in compensation.
