Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has been banned from driving for six months after being caught speeding last year.
The Portuguese was reportedly captured on a speed camera travelling at 60mph in a 50mph zone on the A3 Esher bypass, in Surrey, in September 2014.
At a hearing at Staines Magistrates' Court on Wednesday, the 52-year-old was ordered to pay a £910 fine for driving 10pmh above the speed limit.

He was ordered to pay a £750 fine as well as a £75 surcharge and £85 court costs.
Mourinho did not appear in court himself but entered a guilty plea ahead of the hearing. He was disqualified from driving because he already has nine points on his license - with the latest offence pushing him over the maximum number of points to trigger the ban.

The Blues boss did not wish to disclose his income, although the court confirmed they would take his 'significant income' into account.
Chelsea declined to comment after being contacted.
Meanwhile, Mourinho has paid credit to managers who get results by 'parking the bus' - a phrase he coined to describe a team's negative tactics after Chelsea were held to a goalless draw by Tottenham in 2004.
Speaking at the launch of BT Sport's European football channel, he said: 'First of all I have a lot of respect for the bus drivers, You have to be very, very good to be a good bus driver.

Didier Drogba shrugs during a goalless draw with Spurs in 2004, a game that led to Mourinho coing the phrase 'park the bus'
'To park the bus, you need help to park the bus. Without that help, you will crash the bus. So a bit of credit go to the bus drivers, or the managers who know how to park the bus.
'Football is about moments. It is very difficult to have one game from the first to the last minute to have only one game. Sometimes you dominate, sometimes you are dominated. Sometimes the opponents are on top of the game and you have to play different games within a game. This is not easy to do it.
'The same way, the bus driver needs a lot of experience and a lot of training to park the bus. In football, it takes times and work to understand this. Sometimes I feel that my guys work really hard and while all footballers would like to go to the pitch and have fun, sometimes it is not always like that.'

How does this fella keep collecting more points than the rest of us put together? must be in his DNA

 

He'll be back to drive the bus soon enough.

 

He should have pretended he had diarrhea as an excuse and he might have dodged athe ban, it worked for Lord Buckfast of Salford a few years back.

 

Driving the bus no where to park.

 

Good one

 

I misread the title, I thought it was a six month ban for moaning

 

Because he cannot keep his mouth shut !.

 

I guess when you think Mourinho one of three things will come into your mind. Winning games, moaning, buses.
Today it was moaning

 

60mph in a 50mph zone...? He must have had a accumulation of points already!

 

A Parked bus doesn't need driving, he'll be fine

 

Those of us able to read, discovered that he already had 9 points.

 

I prefer to read the headline and presume the rest

 

Is it possible to presume the future?

 

So that's how Chelsea won the title, they had a 9 point head start.
