A lot of Toon fans reckon this will be his last season at the helm - probably getting sick of the odious owner that is Mike Ashley and his lies and unfulfilled promises. Michael Owen signed back in 2005 is still our record signing...
Must be incredibly frustrating for him to see clubs around us spending big (even newly promoted Fulham are showing their ambition and might come in for Mitro too) while we are slow to do business and have only brought in 1 loan signing (admittedly a popular addition), 1 loan turned permanent and a free transfer. Talk overnight is we are trying to do another loan deal for Ayew from Swansea...
Cashley is also selling our new kits at higher prices than that of bigger, more reputable clubs. Just leaching and exploiting the loyalty of Toon fans (who are hardly the most affluent fans to begin with). If we were an ambitious or successful club challenging for silverware, I could probably understand it but given he just uses the club for a platform for Sports Direct, it's just farcical.
