Greg Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 I wonder what the other news will be. I'm guessing changing the club shop into a Sports Direct +. I bet other than the replica tops, the rest of the NUFC tat sells poorly. Ashley would make more coin through selling his cheap tracksuits and trainers than a NUFC monopoly set or denim shirt with the club crest embroided on the tit. He only just put an concession in there the other week didn't he? One of his other trading names. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Interpolic Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 You'd have thought they'd be keeping a fairly low profile after accepting £35m for our best prospect of recent years and spending none of it. There's always something with this lot. FWIW I think a lot of the press will refer to it as this new name, they just refused to call it SD.com@SJP because it was such a ridiculous mouthful.

Guest BooBoo Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 Is there not some waffle on Twitter that it's stadium name plus other despicable news to air tomorrow? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGuv Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 But Mike Ashley has reduced the debt, and we're 3rd in the league because of him. He sells players and gets better ones in on the cheap. He sacks managers and gets better ones in by luck. The Gallowgate and the East Stand now is fine because we're getting money off Sports Direct. So yeah it's okay if we rename the stadium because we owe everyhitng to Mike Ashley. We may aswell accept it, because i know what we as fans are like. We'll keck up a fuss for a week and then nowt will happen. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NEEJ Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 What St James' songs? We have none about the ground, only ones about stands. Which I fear will be the next thing to change. The Gallowgate End = The Sports Direct Stand. That's what I mean. We need some sharpish. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heron Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 Just watch - the east stand will be the sports direct stand. With the red and blue lettering as per his branding on our seats. FFS man. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skirge Posted November 9, 2011 Share Posted November 9, 2011 Why does he do it, 3rd top things going really well.. but he plays us, half price season ticket offer then waiting until the international break where after we have two away games before we are at home again. That's a full month before we return to St James' Park. Its not like he has sold the naming rights to a multi billion corporation and gained us a nice wedge to go on players, I think a few fans may have understood that.

FFS man. Some of the stands have been sponsored before and nobody used the names. I never once heard "here come Newcastle attacking the famous Exhibition Stand."
