WIMBLEDON hard-man Vinny Jones was a disgrace and should be banned from football – according to an amateur player he elbowed in the face.

Jones allegedly struck Dave Woodhouse off the ball in a friendly against Shanklin on the Isle of Wight.

“It put me in hospital and forced me to take time off work,” said postman Dave. “You can understand Vinny is not my favourite person.”
