UNDER-FIRE Newcastle United FC owner Mike Ashley remained tight-lipped on Wednesday about the current turmoil at St James' Park when he arrived at Shirebook to face shareholders in his Sports Direct International firm.
The billionaire –– who owns 72.2 per cent of the Shirebrook-based company –– refused to comment on the club and the departure of manager Kevin Keegan when he was confronted by media crews at the Brook Park site.
He has been fiercely criticised by Newcastle supporters since Keegan's exit last week, many of whom are now reportedly boycotting firms under the Sports Direct umbrella.
