It's been six months since Newcastle United ’s £300 million takeover by the Saudi Arabian Public Investment Fund - and, following the appointment of Eddie Howe as manager and a £90m January transfer window spend, it has had a successful impact on the pitch.
New co-owners Amanda Staveley and Mehrdad Ghodoussi have been achieving plenty of success off the pitch as well, winning fans over with their methods and openness when going about their duties.
But it is also the players who have welcomed them with open arms and club captain Jamaal Lascelles has been full of praise for the constant communication from the new owners, of which he “never experienced” under the former ownership.
