Newcastle United are the 2025 winners of the Carabao Cup.

Fifty six years since their last and 70 domestically, the Magpies finally have another trophy to put in their cabinet after beating Liverpool 2-1 at Wembley on Sunday.

Boyhood fan Dan Burn headed United in front on the brink of half-time before Alexander Isak doubled the lead shortly after the restart. Federico Chiesa pulled one back in stoppage time but the Reds couldn’t find another to send the match to extra-time.

Now, can someone pass that information on to Mike Ashley’s Sports Direct, please!?

Sports Direct blunder after Newcastle United win Carabao Cup

In an unexplained blunder, Sports Direct currently have a ‘Liverpool 2025 League Cup Winners’ t-shirt for sale online, priced at £9.99.

Honestly, what else can you say? Have they been mistaken for the Premier League? Even then, Arne Slot’s side, who hold a 12-point lead at the top with nine games remaining, haven’t officially wrapped up the title.

Mike Ashley & Newcastle United

Ashley sold Newcastle to the Public Investment Fund of Saudi Arabia for £305million in October 2021, which brought an end to his miserable 14 years in charge.

But even when he’s not the owner, he’s still making mistakes!

OK, so it probably wasn’t Ashley who designed the t-shirt or indeed put it online but either way, it’s under his, his empire.
