Parsy29 127 Posted November 22, 2019 IF Newcastle do get a new investor Im sure the public will give him / her / them at least a season to get things sorted. They are behind with team building due to the uncertainty but all the genuine fans need to realise how close they came to not having a team at all to support. The new investor will have taken on the club knowing full well that Speedway teams don't usually make money so I for one will be backing him / her / them for simply keeping the sport going on Tyneside. 1 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Companies House has a new company called Newcastle Diamonds formed as a limited company in November 2019. The director is Alexander Robert Grant of Ponteland Seems pretty significant although bearing in mind the Bin Zayed group set up a company for the sale of NUFC it's certainly not definitive. Sounds like something is happening (brilliant) as hinted by THJ the other day. Edit: looking at the date of birth looks like it maybe our former rider (possibly assisted by his dad!)

It's a bit like coming home for him and probably his father and I wish them the very best of luck to open up the Diamonds in 2020.
