Any one got idea what EFL approval involves? Is it just a signing off type thing that might be done as soon as someone sits and does it, or is it the full fit and proper persons test thing which is likely to take a fair bit longer, especially with the buyers being from oversees?

Crb check. Think it's £39 or £45 for extended checks. Then they will probably have to sign up to update service at £13 per year. Probably haggling over who pays for this.

That was possibly the most cringeworthy thing they've done "Shoes off if ya love the Toon" !!!. I admit that is a bold statement onsidering the littany of downright assinine stupidity they have perpetrated since football was invented in 1992.

I've checked the 'Is' and crossed the 'Ts' in that and can confirm that we have new owners.
 
I feel like a kid on Christmas Eve night desperately waiting for the morning to come so I can run downstairs and open the presents.

Can’t wait for this takeover to be completed
