Newcastle owner Mike Ashley has faced severe criticism from the fan base because of the club’s refusal to delay season ticket payments.
As per the Chronicle, Newcastle are taking full payments from the fans for next year’s season tickets.
With the world suffering from the Coronavirus pandemic, that seems like an insensitive move from the club.
