That's also how I feel. Reading his refutation I kept thinking: "Lessons learned, eh Mozzer?"
I expect that after the wilderness years and drama of exile in LA that was the result of the first time they did this and his subsequent reinstatement recently, Morrissey decided he wasn't about to let the NME do it again and snatch it away from him a second time. This time he's not gonna take it lying down or low.
