Socceroos and Premier League star Lucas Neill has opened up about the harrowing financial and legal battle that saw him facing three years in jail over allegations he hid almost $4million from creditors after being declared bankrupt.
The Aussie football legend - who skippered his country and starred at the 2006 World Cup - was acquitted in an English court on November 20 after facing charges that he didn't declare the huge sum of money.
That capped off a shocking fall from grace for the 45-year-old, who was making as much as $76,000 a week while he captained West Ham in 2007.
