Mags using JD sports to distribute their kits

Ashley kicking off meaning Sports Direct won’t be able to stock and sell them. Loads of clubs have done this in the past including us but Ashley didn’t kick off then.

We all know this is petty by the mags not allowing Ashley to sell the kits and he’s only going to a tribunal as it’s the Mags.

Surely he hasn’t got a leg to stand on here.

It could open up a can of worms in terms of price fixing etc under competition law..

He will be very well versed in this sort of thing, so I suspect he has a decent chance of winning.

When he was in charge, weren't Sports Direct the only high street stockists of Newcastle Shirts?

Mike Ashley is a shrewd business man, Stavely could learn a lot from him.

 

[PJH]

Seem the crux of the argument is customers are being prevented the best deal on the kits by freezing out a company that generally sell them cheaper.

Lot of similarities between the Mags and the Maga to be fair. Two sets of deluded, silly and aggressive berks
