Dennis Wises Up

New Newcastle United Executive Director, Dennis Wise, not only changed roles this week, he seemingly also changed stylist.

Throughout his time as Leeds United football manager, Wise was seen on the touchline wearing suit, shirt, jumper, but no tie. On just day one of his new Premier League role, the former Chelsea midfield man chose to don a plain black silk tie.

Arguments will rage over whether Wise was right to leave Leeds for Newcastle. What we are sure of though is Dennis' decision to give the role the respect of the tie is the correct one.
