ForeverBlue_Since91 2,895 Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 I saw this last night also and pointed it out to my son - wee trip over to the mega store 1st thing Sat morning.this Ashley story might have some truth, holding back releasing 2nd and 3rd kit so it can be sold in sports direct stores.Looks like jjb know this is happening and don't want to be left with excess stock.Funny that because i heard someone say puma will be taking over as our sponsor in the next few weeks. A guy put this question to the guy that does the Rangers megastores twitter and he says it's news to him. But with this story coming out the guys not far off the mark.

Those rumours were from ages ago - but it's not the kind of shite you want heard from any chairman. I just reckon Mike Ashley is bad news, would rather him stay away and shove his cash.

Would a Spurs fan not want to "dismantle" Arsenal rather than Newcastle? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MCLACHLAN1 49 Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 Newcastle United were fucked when Ashley bought them. Overpaid wasters. Money being spent they had not yet received etc. Ashley took overLook at them now.I can't see a negative to him investing. Our retail is a joke as it is. Sticking levels etc piss poor.

Rangers men in charge of Rangers please.As a Newcastle fan second, I shared this view at one stage but in the space of a few years Ashley has totally turned us around on an off the park. Financially secure and challenging at the better end of the EPL. In my opinion he is doing a great job. He certainly knows how to run a business Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
