Left my house this morning and thought i'd take the scenic route. As I walked I noticed that Ashbee's house has not already been sold but it also already has new tenants! How long did this transfer really drag on for? Did Ash know he was going before preston were interested?
Probably a lot longer than officially acknowledged, but I don't hold it against him. He's not gone long left in his career, much like Bullard, so they are both entitled to play while they can somewhere else.
As far as I knew Ashbee still owned the house. His wife moved away ages ago with his kids (although I've seen her around hessle a few times since then).
He has had that up for sale for ages. He has just bought a place in Anlaby House, still planning on living there with his misses.
I suspect this is just a coincidence and he was already on his way out the gaff before he'd even spoken to Preston. Maybe he'll car share with Wayne Brown.
