Video: Piers Morgan calls into an MUTV show to ask Jonny Evans’ wife about ‘spitgate’

Now this is peculiar.

Now this is peculiar.

To say that Piers Morgan splits opinion would be pretty kind to the broadcaster because his critics are plentiful.

You can add the names of Jonny Evans and his wife Helen to the list of people that have crossed Arsenal fan Morgan off their Christmas card list after this odd conversation on MUTV.

Mrs Evans is a host on Man Utd’s in-house channel MUTV and she got an unwanted caller this week after Arsenal fan Morgan dialed in to talk about the furore surrounding her husband, Papiss Cisse and some saliva.

The Northern Ireland international has since been banned for six-matches by the FA while Cisse will miss the next seven games for the Magpies.

United meet the Gunners in the FA Cup tomorrow and if Van Gaal’s side needed any further motivation for the match then they might find it here.
