Mike Ashley has put up £3.25m to inspire Newcastle to cup glory
The billionaire owner is ready to stump up a £3.25m prize fund to spur Steve McClaren's men to break the club's 46-year trophy drought.
And to prove their new-found commitment, Newcastle have even brought out a special shirt to wear in cup games next season.
Supporters are already making wise-cracks about it being a one-off jersey given Newcastle's dire record in sudden-death football under the Sports Direct mogul.
