Toon fan Jeff Taylor claims he took photos of Maggie the Magpie with the poster, which said "No more Geordie cash for Ashley", at the club's home game against Hull City.

The dad, of Denton Burn, said: "Someone told Maggie to take the poster and I took pics. Fans will think even the mascot's turned against him."
