Staying patient
Newcastle fans must be frustrated now, as the takeover process seems to be dragging on and on.
However, takeovers do take time, and the St. James’ Park faithful should stay patient and optimistic that it will go through.
Perhaps in the comings days and weeks, Newcastle fans will wake up to the news that the club is under new ownership.
Returning to action
The Premier League is suspended at the moment due to the coronavirus pandemic, but plans are being put into place to resume the season.
According to BBC Sport, clubs will meet on Monday to discuss rules around training.
