Those bolded words could be removed and I'd still believe it. 

To be honest, that's actually how I read it, and I wasn't surprised.

I mentally inserted a comma, so it read as, "He turned up with all his files, and shit in a plastic bag".

Imagine being a young French lad, being shown the wonders of the toon such as the Baltic art gallery, the sage music emporium & if interested, Alan Shearers mansion, and then being introduced to Ashley, who continues the sight seeing via, Greggs, the big market, the other Greggs, his carrier bag and the other Greggs. With the contracts being signed in 'best kebab'.

Have you guys seen this video of Michael Owen doing a tour of Dubai from a green-screened helicopter? I'm not asking you to watch the whole 10 minutes - you get the gist from the first few minutes - but at least watch from 8:05 - 8:33.

Billionaire Sports Direct boss Mike Ashley is a "power-drinking, money-making machine", the High Court heard.

The Newcastle United owner has rejected a claim that he owes investment banker Jeffrey Blue £14m for work he did to boost the sports retail chain's share price.

Mr Blue claims he was offered a £15m incentive during a night of heavy drinking in 2013, but only got £1m.

Lawyers for Mr Ashley told the court Mr Blue was talking "nonsense".

During closing legal arguments, Jeffrey Chapman QC, for the claimant, told Mr Justice Leggatt: "Mr Blue has seen Mr Ashley in action over the years, doing business in pubs, hotel bars and casinos. Doing business with enormous success."

Mr Chapman said evidence aired suggested Mr Ashley was a "power-drinking, money-making machine".

"The deal he entered into with Mr Blue was, like so many of his deals, a brilliant one for Mike Ashley," said Mr Chapman.

"Incentivising Mr Blue into working hard to try and double Sport Direct's share price, which is what he did.

"Mr Ashley reneged by paying Mr Blue £1m."
