John Terry stripped of England Captaincy

Womanising-but-legendary-defender John Terry has been stripped of his captaincy of the England squad and hte decision to go to Euro 2012 hangs in the balance.  Terry will also miss this Sunday's match against Manchester United at Stamford Bridge.
The video below shows the incident between him and Anton Ferdinand (younger brother of also-legendary Rio Ferdinand of Manchester United) during Chelsea's match against QPR on 23rd October 2011 when the former lost 1-0.

Many claim Terry called Ferdinand a 'F*cking bl*ck c*nt' and on 25th November 2011 he was intestigated under caution by the Police and on 21st December he was charged with racist language by the Crown Prosecution Service.

This was not the only time Terry has been in the spotlight:

*In September 2001 he and his teammates were fined by Chelsea for an incident with American tourists at a hotel airport bar after 9/11
*In January 2002 Terry and team mate Jody Morris and Wimbledon's Des Byrne were charged with assault and affray involving a nightclub bouncer on a night out- at that point he was banned from the England squad  during the 2002 World Cup
*Also during 2002 he was fined for parking his Bentley in a disabled car parking space
*In 2009 he was investigated by Chelsea and the FA for allegedley taking money and giving a private tour of Stamford Bridge to an undercover reporter but this was later dropped
* A high-profile case in 2010 saw John Terry stipped of his England captaincy for a year (including the World Cup) when he allegedley had a four-mouth affair with former team-mate Wayne Bridge's (yummy) baby-mummy Vanessa Perroncel
* In May 2010 John Terry's older brother Paul Terry was caught having an affair with team mate Dale Roberts  (of Rushden and Diamonds) fiancee Lindsey Cowan; Terry left Rushden and Diamonds at the end of the season and the grief of the affair led to Roberts' suicide later that year

Anton Ferdinand has also had his fair share of issues-notably arrested for assault on Emile Walker at a nightclub in Ilford in October 2006; charges were dropped when he said he was defending himself and though Walker was trying to steal his £64,000 watch

Rio Ferdinand is stuck in the middle of this as he hates the fact that racism exists in football but still states he will be 'a shoulder to lean on' for his brother. He has said he does not want to be England Captain.

Terry will be put on trial after Euro 2012.
