"And he now faces having to shell out on new players in January . . . with manager Joe Kinnear and director of football Dennis Wise meeting to finalise a list of targets on Tuesday."Ashley's asking price for Newcastle has now dropped by an incredible £250m.
"But the global financial crisis has scuppered his exit plan.
"He purchased the club for £133m and spent a further £57m to settle a loan for the redevelopment of St James's Park."
The interesting article does not seem to have any basis in fact.
No quote from Ashley, Joe Kinnear or the club ... just a lot of speculation.
