Former England captain Paul Ince has been banned from driving and ordered to pay £7,085 after admitting drink-driving.

The 57-year-old appeared at Chester Magistrates' Court on Friday where he admitted driving his black Range Rover while over the limit on 28 June in Neston, Cheshire.

District Judge Jack McGarva told Ince: "The message has got to be if you're going to drive you don't drink at all."

He was banned from driving for 12 months, fined £5,000 and ordered to pay a £2,000 statutory surcharge and £85 costs.
