I’m an ex-Premier League star who once had someone s*** in my wash bag at Spurs – I think it was Woodgate
TOTTENHAM cult hero David Bentley revealed the “worst” prank he ever suffered.
Bentley was known for his outlandishness during his playing days, which saw him spend five years at Spurs – almost three of which were on loan at Birmingham, West Ham, Rostov and Blackburn.
The former midfielder endured a number of crazy moments but he claims none of them beat the time when he found out someone had defecated inside his wash bag.
The ex-England international believes to this day that former Tottenham team-mate Jonathan Woodgate was the guilty party.
However, the 38-year-old still thinks that the distasteful prank was “funny”.
Bentley told FourFourTwo: “I had my car stolen, but the worst was someone sh***ing in my wash bag when I was at Spurs.
“I think it was Jonathan Woodgate. I opened it up and there was a big turd inside. I found it funny.
“Every day, mad things would happen. Once, I walked out on to the training pitch in Ugg boots.
“Harry [Redknapp] took one look at me and said: ‘F**k off’.”
Bentley joined Tottenham from Blackburn in 2008 after spending his youth at Arsenal‘s academy.

He never managed to convince the Gunners’ legendary manager Arsene Wenger, who sent him out on loan to Norwich and Blackburn, who ultimately signed him on a permanent deal.
Bentley amassed a total of five goals and 11 assists in 62 appearances in North London.
He called time on his career in 2013 after his second loan stint at Blackburn.
