Taylor accuses car valet of boot theft
Newcastle defender Ryan Taylor has accused a car valet of stealing his boots and selling them on eBay.
Lee Donnelly, 35, was cautioned by police after a holdall of cherished memorabilia was stolen from Taylor’s garage.
The 35-year-old, who runs LJD Valet, has worked for a host of Toon stars and made national news in January when he claimed Demba Ba owed him £40 for work he had done.
Among the stolen haul were the boots Taylor wore when he scored the winner during Newcastle’s 1-0 derby win over Sunderland in 2011 and the boots he wore when he scored for Newcastle in a 2009 Sir Bobby Robson tribute match against Ipswich.
He has since been reunited with his derby-day boots.
