When you find yourself agreeing with Michael Gove, you know Mike Ashley has taken things a step too far.
The NUFC owner shamelessly tried to keep his Sports Direct stores open last night in a bid to make more cash – ignoring the PM’s advice, risking lives and the safety of his staff despite last night’s lockdown announcement – and today he’s receiving widespread backlash.
Not only has Tory minister Michael Gove told Piers Morgan that Mike Ashley’s stores should NOT stay open during a live appearance on Good Morning Britain earlier, Sky Sports’ Jeff Stelling has also launched a scathing attack at the Sports Direct chief:
Mike Ashley has now taken back his plea to keep stores open, but he’s not getting away with it.
Here’s what Gillette Soccer Saturday’s Jeff Stelling has had to say in a brutal and brilliant slaughtering of Mr.Ashley:
Former Dragons Den star Duncan Bannatyne has had his say and has hit the nail on the head:
I never thought I’d see Jeff Stelling use the phrase taking the ****. Fair play to him for speaking up. He clearly has a great affection for northern teams in general and not just his beloved Hartlepool.
