Chelsea’s New Head Coach Liam Rosenior Fined and Given Three Points for July Speeding Offence

A missed course plus a lapsed fixed‑penalty offer pushed the case to a fast‑track single justice hearing.

Overview

  • Rosenior admitted driving at 36mph in a 30mph zone on Rykneld Road in Littleover, Derbyshire, on July 7.
  • He pleaded guilty in writing, and on January 2 a magistrate handled the case under the single justice procedure.
  • The court imposed three penalty points and ordered payments totaling £1,052, comprising a £666 fine, £120 in costs, and a £266 victim surcharge.
  • He missed a booked speed awareness course after fog delayed his flight from France, then paid a fixed penalty on December 8 but did not supply licence details within 28 days, leading to cancellation and prosecution.
  • Chelsea unveiled Rosenior as head coach on January 6 on a deal to 2032, with reports indicating he is expected to attend Wednesday’s match against Fulham.
