Nicky Butt never said sorry after he smashed my leg in road accident – I’ve lost my job & struggle to walk, says biker
{by} Thesun.co.uk

THE biker who had his leg broken by ex-Manchester United’s Nicky Butt in a car smash says it cost him his job and claims the star has never said sorry.

Ex-England ace Butt, 49, was last week told he faced possible jail for causing serious injury by careless driving.


Nicky Butt puts his hand to his mouth as biker Adam Fielding lies injured in road

Our pictures show him looking concerned moments after the crash involving his £100,000 Land Rover Defender, as Adam Fielding lies in the road with a shattered left leg.

But despite claims in court that he had shown remorse, Honda rider Adam, 30, said: “I have not heard anything from Nicky Butt.

“If I had knocked someone from their bike, I would be making sure that person was looked after from the moment they got home.

“I’d be doing their shopping and making sure they are OK but I have not heard a word from him.”

The court heard Butt had a lapse of concentration as he pulled out of a junction after collecting his son from Burnley FC’s training ground at 8.10pm on October 17, 2022.

The shaken midfielder, now chief executive at League Two Salford City, covered his mouth with his hand as bystanders comforted Adam until an ambulance arrived.

He needed an operation to insert a metal rod into the mangled limb and spent ten months on crutches.

Adam developed a blood clot and requires medication for the rest of his life. The devastating injury also meant he had to give up his job as a Screwfix store manager.

Last week Butt’s solicitor told Blackburn magistrates his client had “clearly shown remorse” in a letter.

However, it is not clear whether this was an apology to the court or to Adam.

Adam told The Sun: “He has never spoken to me or written me a letter.

"Or if he has, I haven’t seen it. If I had put somebody through all this, I’d be doing everything possible to help. He has done some serious damage to me, and I have not fully recovered from my injuries.

“His solicitors may have advised him not to make direct contact.”

Adam, of Burnley, spent two weeks in hospital.

He added: “While I was there Nicky Butt did ask the police if he could contact me and I agreed, but I didn’t hear from him.”

About his work, Adam said: “Screwfix were very good to me but, after 13 months, it was clear I wouldn’t be able to do the job.

“It is quite physically demanding and I could no longer do it.

“My life has changed drastically very quickly.”

Adam says he does not remember anything about the crash or the immediate aftermath. He has not ridden a motorbike since.

He added: “Apparently, at the scene, Butt was very concerned and held his hands up and accepted it was his fault and said he didn’t see me. I just don’t know how he hasn’t seen me.

“I don’t hold any ill will against him because I know he didn’t knock me off my bike deliberately.

“I have been through a range of emotions about him.

“When I am in pain with my leg, I get angry at him and at what has happened. I am OK walking short distances but long walks can cause me pain. I take painkillers and need to elevate my foot because it swells up.”

Butt, who lives in a £1.7million mansion in Bowdon, Cheshire, initially attended a voluntary police interview on December 1, 2023.

Last week he admitted causing serious injury by careless driving.

He was told he faces up to two years in jail or an unlimited fine when sentenced on June 21.

Butt was also handed an interim driving ban.

Prosecutor Graeme Tindall said: “What appears to have happened is a number of vehicles pass what appears to look like a HGV.

"Mr Butt having let the HGV come past, pulls out and this is when Mr Fielding is coming past on the motorcycle.”

John Dye, defending the footballer, said: “Mr Butt tried to assist and clearly has shown remorse in the letter that he sent.”

Adam did not give a victim impact statement at the hearing.

Lancashire Police last night said he was in the process of writing one.

Butt, who has two children from his marriage to ex Shelley Barlow, was a key member of United’s celebrated Class of 92 — rising through the ranks with pals David Beckham, Ryan Giggs and Gary and Phil Neville.

Butt helped the Old Trafford club win countless trophies, including the Champions League, Premier League and FA Cup treble in 1999.

By the time he left in 2004, he had helped United win six Premier League titles, three FA Cups and the Champions League win.

Butt later had spells at Newcastle and Birmingham City. In 2014, he bought Salford City along with Giggs, the Nevilles and Paul Scholes.

He was also head of first-team development at Manchester United from 2019-2021.
