Ashley showing the world what a cunt he can be - again. I wouldn't be in the least bit surprised if he still has some of his fingers in the NUFC pie, so to speak. God knows what he's gotten up to during his 14 years of owning us.
He won't be the first player to do this and won't be the last. Young lads with too much money and a lot of spare time on their hands, can spell trouble if they aren't advised properly.
Keith Gillespie and Michael Chopra did the same thing.
I remember Ray Hankin telling me about him, when Ray played for Vancouver Whitecaps. Some lad, apparrently.
Ray (ex Burnley and Leeds), is a work colleague, btw. Top fella.
If Beardsley had played for Barcelona, he would be viewed in the same way as Messi now is. He was a wonderful player - it's just a shame that my memories are now tainted by recent events.
