CHELTENHAM RACECOURSE HAS cancelled a group booking involving former Aston Villa midfielder Samir Carruthers after images emerged allegedly showing him urinating into a pint glass on the first day of the festival.
The former Republic of Ireland U21 and current MK Dons player was one of a group of players photographed by The Sun appearing to relieve themselves before a glass of liquid was poured over the balcony they were standing on.
The racecourse has now moved to block them from attending today’s racing in a tweet issued this morning.
His club has launched an investigation into the pictures and said that while Carruthers was involved, neither he nor any other MK Dons player threw the liquid over the balcony.
In a statement, MK Dons said:
The club is aware of pictures circulating in the national media of one of its players at the Cheltenham Festival. The club has commenced an internal investigation into the matter.”
