Newcastle won't continue to challenge the top six in the next few seasons without as much investment as is possible, and the name change is a really good way for Ashley to reinvest money into the football club. Given the choice between their stadium still being renamed or a real possibility of European football at the end of the season, what would most supporters choose?

You can already see the impact that money has made on their end to this season. I really doubt without that extra guaranteed money coming in every season they would have gambled £9 million on Papiss Cisse, a gamble which has complete paid off. With his recent goals they are in with an outside chance of a CL spot, and a really good chance of Europa League football.

Money isn't everything, but playing good, successful football should be most important thing for any club and this investment is going to help them continue that.
