Was just pointing out the facts, I thought he was Spurs too but...

"It is upsetting for them to read these things; they read I am a mad Spurs fan and this sort of thing, and of course it is not true – I absolutely hate Spurs. I always have done."
I don't think a proper Spurs fan would say that.
Er, why the hell has he offered non playing staff a million quid if the playing staff win this game?
That seems mad.
Either you want to give them a fat wad of cash or you don't. I suppose some people will see it as he wants to incentivise the team through guilt, some will see it as he is quietly confident they aren't going to win - maybe even knows it, if you're into conspiracy theories.
Really though it just looks like he's playing games with people. If you think they deserve a bonus how can you then say you'll give them one but only if another group of human beings manages to beat a superior team in a match with no consequences on the season. Ashley is a twat.

I always thought he was a Spurs fan. So do geordie mates of mine. I guess that pretty much quashes that.
As far as the bonus to non-playing staff goes, he might as well kit them out. They might play better than how the supposed players have lately.

Why not?
For what it's worth, Ashley is a big Chelski fan. Doesn't have much time for the scum either
Where the misunderstanding has happened was with the press a couple of years back constantly showing him alongside his good mate and drinking partner Kemsley, who is Spurs through and through.
EDIT: Found that out yesterday from
Spurs in Belgium
