Newcastle fans have appealed to Toon owner Mike Ashley to suspend all season ticket direct debits during the current crisis.
Ashley has come under fire over the past 24 hours after announcing that his Sports Direct stores would remain open after PM Boris Johnson announced that all non-essential retail shops must shut down.
Despite a humiliating U-turn earlier today in the wake of fierce criticism for putting profits before the nation's health, the controversial businessman remains in the dock.
Now supporters' pressure group “Toon For Change” is urging Ashley to show his human side. Toon fans have pleaded for Ashley to take into account the financial hardship thousands of loyal Newcastle followers are facing with the country in lockdown.
