I think its was past due and hopefully he is a man of his word? He strikes as a man who will get things done whatever it takes and I believe this is something we need. Shepherd, Fletcher et al always appeared to be in it for the money/prestige. Sure he put alot of money in, but what did we lose overall? Certainly our direction after a series of piss poor managers making piss-poor decisions. A firm hand to steady the ship and a sense of direction are most welcome. Lets just see if he match his words with the appropriate actions? These are good noises coming from Mike Ashley. I think its was past due and hopefully he is a man of his word?

Ashley obviously makes some of his money from shirt sales so obviously if he can make Newcastle United everyones second favourite like in the past then he will get further shirt sales beyond the fans. It is certainly a long way off a present but there really does need to be something big to give a big lift in optimism and building for the future riding on the back of it.
