Sheffield Wednesday striker Madine jailed

Sheffield Wednesday striker Gary Madine has been jailed.

The Daily Mail reports Madine, once a transfer target for Newcastle United, has been jailed for 18 months after he was found guilty of punching two men in separate nightclub attacks.

Madine, 23, who has a previous conviction for knocking a man out in a Carlisle pub, punched Wednesday fan Daniel Beresford in the Paris Bar in Sheffield city centre in February last year, breaking his nose.

Four weeks later, he punched bricklayer and Sheffield United fan Reece Hall in the city's Viper Room club, shattering his cheekbone.
