Some Newcastle United fans have taken to Twitter to give their reaction to the Sports Direct signs being removed at St. James’ Park and from the list of sponsors on the club’s official website.
No Mike Ashley’s Sports Direct at Newcastle
The Chronicle reported on Monday that the Sports Direct advertising boards around St James’ Park are being removed.
Then it emerged today that Mike Ashley’s company is no longer featured as a sponsor on Newcastle’s official website.
Ashley sold Newcastle Saudi Arabia’s Public Investment Fund (PIF) earlier in the season.
And now PIF are making sure that all signs that Ashley was ever at Newcastle are removed.
Newcastle United fans delighted

And we can safely say that no St. James’ Park faithful will miss the Sports Direct signs at the ground.
