Dean Saunders jailed for 10 weeks for failing to provide breath test
Former Wolves Boss Dean Saunders has been jailed for 10 weeks.
He pleaded guilty to failing to comply with a roadside breath test and failing to provide a breath sample for analysis.
The 55-year-old was stopped on suspicion of drink driving by police in Boughton, Chester, on May 10 pleaded guilty by letter and was sentenced today (28 August) at Chester Magistrates' Courts.
Saunders, of The Paddocks, Whitegate had initially denied both charges at an earlier hearing.
He was also banned from driving for 30 months and ordered to pay costs of £620.
Saunders, who also played for Aston Villa and Derby County and was capped by Wales 75 times, is a regular football TV pundit.
He said he had been out at Chester Races and had drunk two pints.
His lawyer suggested this may have "interacted" with the medication he takes for injury to his knees and his inhaler for his asthma.
Police who arrested him said Saunders was slurring his speech and had to prop himself up against his car when he was asked to get out of the vehicle.
