Newcastle United have been up for sale for nearly a year now but the club appear no closer to being sold. And, with Amanda Stavely understood to be the only interested party, things aren't likely to change unless current owner Mike Ashley drops his asking price.
That is according to the Chronicle's chief sports writer Lee Ryder, who participated in a fan Q&A on Wednesday afternoon.
Answering a question posed by a supporter regarding the progress as it relates to Stavely purchasing the club, Ryder indicated that the businesswoman is simply monitoring the situation at the moment.
