Players with nothing to play for? Newcastle v Chelsea game set to land NUFC squad a bonus £5m.

Hopefully Mike Ashley will offer us all the most important bonus scheme of ‘hope’ this coming season, now that would be a major departure from recent years.

I managed a smile when I realised the abject failure of Leicester v Newcastle means not a single slacker at NUFC will get a bonus this season!

The Newcastle player bonus scheme arrangements confirmed for this season.

Many Newcastle fans thought it was feeble that the bonus scheme meant players were rewarded for tenth – what about this radical new plan though?
