Footballer's wife wins case

The ex-wife of Arsenal and England star footballer has won her legal fight at the Court of Appeal. The ruling guaranteed Karen Parlour a third of his future income.

Ms Parlour's lawyer had argued she rescued his career and was entitled to more of his £1.2m-a-year income. In a bizarre twist the judge also appointed Ms Parlour to assistant coach along side Arsenal's current manager Arsene Wenger.

The judgement recognised her input into Mr. Parlour's career and has moved to strengthen the ties and ensure Ms. Palour has a say in all future training schedules, match tactics and substitutions.

Mr Palour's lawyer described the move as 'moronic and downright stupid'. Ms Parlour's lawyer later described her reaction to the judgement as 'fair, if not a little disappointing'.

This is not the first case of a strange sentence being set down by a judge regarding football players. In 2002 England star Paul Gascoinge's wife Cheryl was awared full control over her estranged husband's contract and transfer dealings.. Moving swiftly after the judgement Ms Gascoigne set up the transfer former husband to a minor league club team in the heart of rural China.

This case has set a new precedence in British law with many men rushing to their local solicitors to protect themselves against any future settlements.

Commentators have warned of a wave of bizarre new rulings being set down by the courts. Professor Edward Clyde of the University of Birmingham warned, 'This is a new age in justice as we know it.'

'It is quite possible that Tony Blair's childhood sweetheart could claim to have been a major contributor in his rise to the top and secure a share of the Prime Ministership.'

Gordon Brown is said to be studying the case closely and considering his next move. Ms Parlour's first move as assistant coach at Arsenal was to offer a new lucrative 10 year contract to Mr Parlour. He graciously accepted.
