And it’s goodnight Elverys and Lifestyle Sports.
Are they not the guys who had overworked warehouse people or something dodgy like that? My brain is struggling to remember the details.
Yes, they treat their workers like dirt

Yeah, the guardian done a good undercover expose a while back. Horrible bunch to work for and owned by a pretty horrible person.
Mike Ashley
owner of Newcassel United like
another fat rich c–t that treats his workers like animals
disappointed to see them get back into the Prem this season
I’ll not nor anyone in my house buy a stick in that kip.
Support Elverys or even better your small local sports shop instead!!!
I wouldn’t worry about nooocasssel succeeding. There’s always soap opera style drama with the club followed by outrage from the geordies.
Yeah but…. Rafa.
also lets not forget the way he treated Chris Hughton
How are they new jobs when they’re just replacing (almost certainly at a lower wage) the ones from Boyers?
Thought it was another Leo stunt.
The owner of sports direct is probably an inspiration to Leo, especially in his abuse of workers..
Ah well a great little country to disenfranchise the workers..

Nicky Byrne could have been working in Sports Direct were it not for his enormous musical talent and indeed his broadcasting skills. A master of many trades. He is a symbol of Ireland really
wha
the political connections or that he had a trial with an English Club
Well if he had a trial with an Irish club he would have been acquitted.
Very droll, Andrew. Kudos :-)
You forgot his greatest achievement. Marrying a smart girl with brains and bags of money.
Lovely store signage in what is in an Architectural Conservation Area. The lack of enforcement is shocking in this city. Could look so much nicer. PS absolute hellhole of a company.
Martin O Neill without his glasses is a ringer for Micheal Martin in the first pic. Martin Martin :O It all makes sense now!!
Hello. And Bye.
