Amanda Staveley says Saudi takeover “will” go through in live appearance on talkSPORT - Video

An enraged Amanda Staveley got into a heated battle with talkSPORT’s Simon Jordan live on air while discussing her attempts to revive our failed Saudi takeover.

Arbitration proceedings are expected to begin imminently to decide the fate of a takeover that has sat in limbo for the best part of 15 months.

Staveley has been doing the media rounds to rally the Toon Army for one last push, and appeared on talkSPORT with Jim White and Simon Jordan - ending the interview with a hugely promising message to NUFC fans.

Jordan labelled Staveley calling on fans to pressure politicians into intervening on a decision as “barking at the moon”, and instead suggested that she needs to get at least 14 Premier League clubs on board to change the regulations around transparency.

Staveley then fired back and the former Crystal Palace owner for calling our fanbase “gullible” for thinking the takeover will still go ahead, and passionately insisted that the deal WILL go ahead once arbitration is finalised.
