We're no financial experts, but Mike Ashley might want to reconsider how he's spending his money as of late.
Maybe
the extreme cold weather of Tyneside has driven him mad, but the controversial Newcastle United owner
happily splashed out £12m for Jonjo Shelvey just a few days ago after the England international
appeared to give up on his former club Swansea.
Now Ashley is using his fortune to run a £2.4m jacket giveaway to his club's fans if the Magpies beat West Ham at St James Park on Saturday.

But despite the apparent generosity of the Newcastle owner, the news wasn't well-received on by fans on Twitter.

Fair play.
