According to The Chronicle, the Premier League have been granted the extension to file and serve their evidence in defence against Mike Ashley’s camp.

Ahead of the announced delay, the Premier League had already been accused of “delay tactics” by the husband of Amanda Staveley – who is leading the consortium reportedly interested in taking over the Tyneside club.

Toon fans flocked to a tweet from NUFC 360 relaying the news to show their frustration in the latest setback in their reported takeover saga.
