The former Toon skipper says the time has come for Ashley to respect the Toon supporters more, rather than treat them as though they don't exist.

Bob Moncur: “I think they (Mike Ashley and Derek Llambias) got off to a terrible start when they took over.

"They need to try to get ­together with the fans.

“To be fair to Mike Ashley and Derek Llambias, there’s no doubt the club were in big trouble.

“They managed to ­stabilise it and they have a plan to move on from there.

“It’s not a case of buying massive names – Rome wasn’t built in a day.

“People say, ‘Where has the £35m gone?’. But I’m sure there’s a good ­explanation."
