Amanda Staveley sends message from Saudi Arabia to Newcastle United supporters

Amanda Staveley has sent a message of thanks to "all of our incredible fans" for the support we've shown the men's and women's teams so far this season.

She's "forever thankful" for the "passion and appreciation" we show towards both teams, with Eddie Howe's Mags flying and Becky Langley's lasses currently unbeaten following a 4-0 win of their own over the weekend.

Staveley feels the "love" we demonstrate every game towards the team and the entire NUFC community has a huge impact on our results, believing it makes us "such a formidable opponent."

Our co-owner is currently in Saudia Arabia with Mehrdad Ghodoussi and has this morning posted photos on Instagram from her trip, coupled with this message:

“So looking forward to coming home to Newcastle - but wanted to take this opportunity to thank all of our incredible fans for the support for both our men’s and women’s teams over this season.

“I’m always humbled and will be forever thankful for the passion and appreciation that you show our talented men and women.

“The love and respect you demonstrate to our whole NUFC community at every game makes such an impact on our results – and makes us such formidable opponent. Thank you.”

Staveley is expected back on Tyneside for tomorrow, where we take on Borussia Dortmund in our third Group F game in the UEFA Champions League. Bring it on!
