A lot of Newcastle United fans have flocked to a tweet from NUFC 360 relaying quotes from Martin Hardy’s and Matt Lawton’s piece in The Times.

Hardy and Lawton report that the Premier League have received paperwork from Newcastle United about a potential change in ownership.

This is described as ‘significant‘ in the piece and it could mean the Toon are a step closer to having a new owner/owners.

This comes at the same time as George Caulkin released a takeover update that claimed that Mike Ashley has lowered his price and definitely wants to sell.

Do you think this is a significant update?

Yes

Yes

No

No

However, many Newcastle fans are still not convinced considering every takeover attempt since Ashley bought the club has failed.

Other Toon supporters, though, are more hopeful and are begging for this to be true.

What do we think?

Considering both Hardy, Lawton, and Caulkin have provided positive takeover updates on the same day, we think that there might be something in it.

Crucially, both updates seem positive and hint at a successful conclusion that would see Mike Ashley replaced as the owner of Newcastle.

It will be interesting to see what happens over the next week.
