North-East journalist offers promising insight on Amanda Staveley's bid to buy NUFC

by Olly Hawkins ·

It's official, Amanda Staveley and PCP Partners have now made a £300m bid to buy NUFC and journalists across the North-East have weighed in with their thoughts and insights on the matter.

Firstly, NUFC editor for The Chronicle Mark Douglas has revealed that there is now real optimism that this deal could now get done quickly from here on in, admitting that the mood has felt much more positive on the takeover behind the scenes over the past few weeks:

He admits that things are now 'progressing quickly' and feels a deal could most definitely be done by Christmas after things really 'stepped up a gear' tonight.

Exciting times, but worth mentioning that this is only a bid. It doesn't mean it will be accepted.

Nonetheless, this is a hugely promising development and a massive step towards us having much needed new owners of our beloved football club.
