Irrespective of where Newcastle United finish this season, the Magpies fans could look forward to the transfer window if the potential new owners arrive, eventually.
Despite all the obstacles faced by the Saudi consortium (issues of human rights and piracy), the Amanda Staveley camp are very confident that they will pass the Premier League’s ‘owners and directors test’.
Some journalists have claimed that the new-owners could invest around £200m on recruitment and infrastructure, while there are others who reported that the Stavely group will take it steadily and that it is a long-term project for them.
