A COUNCILLOR who was once the highest-paid in the UK has made the startling claim — that he slept with an Arsenal footballer.
Brian Coleman, who calls himself the 'King of Bling', made the bizarre revelation about his sex life in a blog post.
The openly gay councillor refused to give any hint as to the player’s identity from the Premiership team, other than saying he was a striker.
Mr Coleman, 51, used to be the mayor of Barnet in North London and now serves as an independent on the Council.
His unusual claim last week appeared in a unrelated posting on Barnet FC's plans to move stadiums.
Posting ... Mr Coleman's banner to his blog
He wrote: “For someone who has little interest in Football, although I did attend Barnet v Port Vale at Underhill a couple of years ago, and once slept with an Arsenal striker, I am not fussed if Barnet survive in the Football League or bothered where they play.”
It is unclear when the alleged incident took place or who the footballer was.
The former Tory was suspended by the party after he was arrested last September for allegedly assaulting a woman who tried to photograph him parking in a restricted zone.
Mr Coleman also hit the headlines when he claimed that former Prime Minister Ted Heath was reprimanded as a junior MP for “cottaging” for gay sex.
Allegation ... Coleman was suspended after 'assaulting a woman who tried to photograph him'
As a member of the London Assembly who was chairman of the London Fire and Emergency Planning Authority, he pocketed £130,000, more than any other local official in the country.
Only a very small number of footballers are openly gay, with just three professionals believed to have come out during their careers.
