Crystal Palace manager Oliver Glasner has been disqualified from driving for six months after admitting to speeding in a 20mph zone, an offence that triggered an automatic ban due to existing penalty points.
Oliver Glasner has been banned from the road for six months after being caught speeding in Bermondsey last July.
The 51-year-old Austrian, who led Crystal Palace to FA Cup glory in 2025, pleaded guilty to driving his BMW at 29mph in a 20mph zone.
Because the manager already had prior offences on his record, the additional points resulted in a mandatory disqualification at Willesden Magistrates’ Court.
The Premier League boss accepted full responsibility in a handwritten note to the court. “I fully accept responsibility for my actions and understand the seriousness of this matter,” Glasner wrote.
“I have taken steps to ensure it will not happen again.“ Alongside the ban, he was ordered to pay a £660 fine plus costs, just days before a crucial relegation clash against Tottenham Hotspur.
