... Newcastle United’s dressing room after watching the team’s 1-0 win over Leicester City.
Asked by the BBC’s Match of the Day whether a post-match visit from Ashley was the norm, Pardew said: “Not in the time I’ve been here, and that’s how important the win was.
“It’s a big feeling for us, because this club needed a win."
Alan Shearer, on BBC’s Match of the Day programme on Sunday afternoon was far from impressed.
He said: "If his appearance is THAT important why doesn't he do it every week?"
