John Carew

Aston Villa boss man Martin O’Neill has handed down a significant fine to Norwegian striker John Carew after said forward was caught out at a “Lap Dancing Club” in the wee hours of Thursday morning.

Left out of the Uefa Cup squad against Ajax (a game in which Aston Villa won), Carew’s decision to go out after the match forced O’Neill to confront the big man.

O’Neill said: “John was disciplined because he breached the rules. John thinks there are mitigating circumstances. I listened and then I made a decision he was wrong.”

“John assures me it won’t happen again so I will believe him. It wasn’t the brightest thing to do. Most of the players in the dressing room are saying it should be doubled.”

He’s finally gotten the shout for the first team and you can expect Gabby Agbonlahor to make the most of it. Yes, he’s still in the U-21’s with Stuart “Pyscho” Pearce, but under Martin O’Neill he’s flourished and was named today to Capello’s final 23 for England’s friendly against Switzerland.
