Ashley Goes Into Europe - With Spurs!

He was a Spurs season-ticket holder for years, and now Mike Ashley is willing to fork out £1m to see his beloved Tottenham reach the Champions League. As Alan Pardew said last week: "Thank God we are not in the Europa League next season!" . the Newcastle owner is hoping to get his passport out . following TOTTENHAM in Europe! Mike Ashley will share out £1million between Newcastle's ancillary staff if the Magpies beat Arsenal on Sunday.  Ashley will hand the windfall to non-playing and coaching staff if Alan Pardew's men end a difficult season in style. The Gunners will arrive at St James' Park needing a victory to guarantee a top-four finish with North London rivals Tottenham, who face Sunderland at White Hart Lane, hot on their heels. Ashley arrived at St James' Park telling us he was a life-long Toon fan; but Wigan chairman Dave Whelan spilt the beans on him: "I've known Mike Ashley for years and he has always been a Spurs season ticket holder. He's a Spurs fanatic!" Source: Newcastle United Mad
