Two married cleaners have branded millionaire Manchester United star Phil Jones a skinflint — after he sacked them over a £300 bill. Angela and Nigel Stubbs, both 51, say they asked for the cash to cover petrol costs.
They had spent a fortnight moving Jones and fiancée Kaya Hall’s belongings from their old home to a £5million mansion. The couple, who worked for the £80,000-a-week Premier League defender for six years, claim they now face life on the dole after being sacked with only six hours’ notice.
Nigel said: “Phil has behaved like a skinflint towards us. “For someone worth several millions of pounds I can’t believe he’s kicked off over just £300.
“This is all because they took issue when we asked for help with a petrol bill, which we only spent because we were helping them move house.”
The couple, who were sacked just before Christmas, are now taking Jones to an employment tribunal.
Jones denies their claims and insists the couple were sacked from their £23,400-a-year jobs because they breached their contracts by asking for wages in advance.
