Newcastle United fans are not only growing impatient with the time it’s taking for their prospective takeover to become a reality, but also with the mixed messages that implicate it from even happening.However, Sky Sports reporter Keith Downie has tried to alleviate things somewhat with an encouraging claim this week…
He suggests that the takeover could happen at any time, whether that be today, tomorrow or another month and that the circumstances surrounding it all aren’t unusual, and this has sparked a reaction from some of the Magpies faithful.
It’s now been well over a month since reports first emerged claiming that Mike Ashley had agreed to sell the club for £300m to a Saudi-backed consortium, led by PCP’s Amanda Staveley and also involving the Reuben brothers amongst others.
The Sports Direct mogul has been at the helm for 13 years where he has overseen two allegations and several seasons of mediocrity so supporters are understandably desperate to see their club taken over with a new sense of financial power.
