Colegate scandal leaves bitter taste

Would someone please tell Ashley Cole to publicly apologise to Cheryl because this Colegate scandal is leaving a bitter taste in some people’s mouths.

Not just because there are millions of blokes up and down the country muttering to themselves ‘How can you cheat on a girl like that?’

Or because paranoid WAGS are now trawling through hundreds of messages on their Premiership partners’ iPhones wondering if they are playing away whilst playing away.

The real reason is that Cheryl ‘Cole’ is now on the front page of every news paper and news website - you just can’t escape it.

Even when you sign into MSN you get a news pop up with Cheryl’s face minus her immaculately crafted dimples.

So why is that a bad thing?

Cheryl Cole helped wean her ex-boyfriend off heroin and is known for being a down to earth genuine-type girl-next-door.

She also happens to be one of the most sought after attractive pop stars since Britney Spears first donned that school girl uniform in 1999.

Without sounding chauvinistic - or like an obsessive stalker, the fact is, Cheryl makes nearly all other good-looking girls that you pass on the street look ordinary.

And she breaks that stereotype that all WAGS are full of themselves, look down on people with less ‘wonga’ yet sponge off their husbands.

I suppose it means that even if you ‘fight, fight, fight for this love’ sometimes it just isn’t meant to be.

Here’s hoping Ashley joins the publicly disgraced sporting love rats club featuring Tiger Woods and John Terry with a public apology to match - it’s the least she deserves.
