Farewell Mike Ashley, we’ll never forget you. Your scandalous renaming of St. James’ Park, two relegations, Joe f*****g Kinnear, an eight-year contract for Alan Pardew, necking pints, giant mugs and so, so much more.
And, to honour the departure of one of The Premier League’s most ‘interesting’ owners ever, we’re giving him a proper Paddy Power send-off this Sunday.
NEW TO PADDY POWER?
That’s right, you may have already spotted a giant mug on the streets of Newcastle today ahead of The Toon’s Premier League clash with Tottenham. If you haven’t, we’ve decided pay homage to the only cup seen inside St. James’ Park for nearly seven decades, wheeling our very giant chalice around the fair streets of the city, emblazoned in blue and red reading, “Goodbye Mug”. A fitting farewell present, we’re sure you’ll agree.
And if Ashley leaving wasn’t enough reason to celebrate Newcastle fans, we’ve also given the Power Price treatment to Newcastle’s odds for Premier League glory. Ok, this season might be a little unrealistic – but fear not.
To give the world’s richest club a sporting chance of pocketing you some cash, Paddy’s traders have given Newcastle’s 25/1 price to win the Premier League before the end of 2023/24 a power-up and it’s now a whopping 50/1.
Is £300bn enough to turn Newcastle from Premier League battlers to title winners? Probably not, but it’ll certainly go a long way to getting them out of the Championship at the first time of asking.
So, if you’re in the Newcastle area keep an eye out for our leaving present for Mike Ashley – you’ll struggle to miss it – and if you think The Toon’s 66-year wait for major silverware is coming to an end you won’t find a better price than what our traders have summoned upon them to take the English title by the end of the 2023/24 season. Howay The Lads!
