ST JAMES’ PARK PLANS

Newcastle United’s plans for St James’ Park will become clearer in the near future, with chief executive Darren Eales revealing this week that the final report from the club’s feasibility study is “imminent”.

Club chiefs want to stay at the club’s much-loved current home but Eales admits the situation is “difficult” as they look at ways to get more fans through the door on a matchday.

Eales said this week: “We’re waiting for the final report. I think it’s imminent.

“That will come in. It will go to ownership and we will also speak to the fan advisory board when we get that final report. Then we will look at what our next steps are going to be.”
