“I’ve not seen him, I’ve spoken to him this week. He’s obviously very keen for us to get victories. That’s what he’s about. That’s what we’re about – winning."
When?
I see it as one of two things. He's either meant it and let his mouth go when under the influence or he's been taking the piss out of the journalist while pissed.
It could have a negative ending though, Ashley could have meant it and could hold off because of the story, we'll see. It's not as if he can't afford to pay Pardew off.
I hope Ashley was pissed and let his mouth go, drunks usually let things slip that they wouldn't when sober. Let's hope he has a skin full on Monday night and gives him the bullet while pissed out of his skull.
40% of those going to the match took a. leaflet, not everbody got the chance to take one and nobody was forced to take one. I hardly saw any, literally 1 or 2 on the ground.
