Odds are that Cheryl Cole will kiss goodbye to Ashley
February 12, 2010
Poor Ashley Cole he has just suffered a horrendous injury blow in the game against Everton where he broke his ankle which could rule him out of action for the next three months which may mean he will not be in contention for a place in the England football squad when Fabio Capello has to make his squad decisions for the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.
To make things worse it has just hit the headlines that the Chelsea left back has taken photos on a camera phone of himself that are “racy” that has ended up in the hands of a third party due to Cole giving the phone to someone else, quite why Ashley felt the need to take dodgy photos of himself on an pay as you go phone, something that a man having an affair might own?
The bookies Paddy Power have cut the odds from 3/1 to just 7/4 for Cheryl to walk away from her footballer husband, her career has certainly taken off in the last year and she could do without Ashley as this time! However if she does decide to dump him who will be lucky enough to date her next?
Who will Cheryl date first if she splits?
- 6/1 – Lewis Hamilton
- 8/1 – Marvin Humes
- 8/1 – Aston Merrygold
- 10/1 – Peter Andre
- 10/1 – Simon Cowell
- 12/1 – Wil i am (From the Black Eyed Peas)
- 12/1 – Orlando Bloom
- 14/1 – Taio Cruz
- 14/1 – George Clooney
- 14/1 – Justin Timberlake
- 16/1 - Zac Efron
- 16/1 - Ronaldo
- 20/1 – Wayne Bridge
