RANGERS player Bilel Moshni has been fined more than £400 after he was caught driving with no insurance and while on his phone.

 

The 27-year-old defender was spotted by officers on Saracen Street in Glasgow's Possilpark area.

 

When police did a background check, on October 15, last year it was found that he had no insurance to drive the car.

 

French-born Moshni pled guilty yesterday (mon) at Glasgow's Justice of the Peace Court to driving without insurance and while on is mobile phone.

 

He was fined a total of £405 with 28 days to pay, and handed six penalty points.

 

A plea of not guilty to a charge of attempting to pervert the course of justice, by pretending to police that he didn't live in the UK and was visiting the country for a catering course, was accepted by prosecutors.

 

Moshni was not present when the case called at the court but was represented by defence lawyer Martin Black.

 

The court heard that Moshni was seen driving and speaking on a mobile telephone.

 

The car he was caught while carrying out the offences was owned by Kilmarnock Football Club.

 

Mr Black said that Moshni had borrowed the car from Kilmarnock player Ismael Bouzid - who was on trial with Rangers this summer.

 

He said his client thought he was covered to drive the car.

 

Mr Black added: "It was nothing nefarious, it was simply an administrative oversight."

 

Moshni has played for French teams CO Les Ulis, Mende, US Saint-Georges and Sainte-Genevieve Sports.

 

He signed a two-year-deal with Rangers in July last year after a four week trial with the club.

 

Moshni made his debut for Rangers at Ibrox in September last year in a 5-1 win over Arbroath.

 

Last month he was sent off during a match against Derby County for headbutting striker Chris Martin and subsequently given a two match ban from the SFA for the first two competitive fixtures of the season.

Should have been disqualified and had the car taken from him.

 

Insurance dodgers should never be let back on the road nor 'phone buffoons either.

More confirmation of what we already knew - the guy's an eejit.

Are these stories really filling the pages of our National newspapers?

 

No wonder I stopped buying any newspapers several years ago.

 

As for the last paragraph, WTF has that got to do with anything???

That explains a lot.
