No sign of Mike Ashley spending £50m of his own money on #nufc in the Championship, as @rioferdy5 said. Ashley loans the club money, which increased by £15m that year. He makes money from blanket Sports Direct advertising at St James Park, and selling merchandise to the club. https://t.co/v3byPX6D0S
