Casino Jimmy

Recommended Posts

''During a session with the Denmark national under-21 football team in 1999, Nielsen and u-21 teammates Allan K. Jepsen and Peter Degn went to the Munkebjerg casino in Vejle at night to gamble. They were subsequently excluded from all national team practices, a ban that lasted several years. This earned Nielsen the nickname Casino-Jimmy. In April 2004, Jimmy Nielsen and fellow teammate David Nielsen raked up a debt of £160,000 with Aalborg bookies, though AaB director Lynge Jacobsen decided to help out both financially as well as giving the team councelling lessons for gambling addiction.''

In 2006, Jimmy published a self biography called 1000 på rød (lit. 1000 on red).
