Barry Moat still keen

nust_logo_smallIn an interview with Sky, Barry Moat says that he is again interested in buying Newcastle United and would then sell the St James' Park name for comercial reasons to invest in players.

Mark Jensen, Spokesperson for the Trust who launched our six week Yes We Can campaign last Tuesday said

"We welcome any serious offers for Newcastle but this is deja-vu, we will continue our fan based campaign to make the club accountable to the city again. We've made approaches to Mr Moat previously and had no reply but we're happy to speak to anyone who has the long term interests of Newcastle at heart. If he has any ideas about how he would take the club forward apart from carrying on the idea of selling the name of Saint James' Park 'for commercial reasons' then once again we would happily talk. One point of immediate disagreement is the issue of re-naming the ground. We'll be clear, under a Trust led bid there would be no change of name. We have a series of commercial ideas that don't strip out the history of the club and would retain the integrity of Saint James' Park".
