Darren Eales is now the only director of it, previously the likes of Lee Charnley were the nominal single director named.
On the day of the takeover, 7 October 2021, Lee Charnley resigned as a director of this dormant NUFC company and Amanada Staveley and Jamie Reuben were appointed as directors of it on the same day.
The ‘proper’ Newcastle United company, as we know it, still has the following listed directors – Yasir Al-Rumayyan, Amanda Staveley, Jamie Reuben, Asmaa Mohammed Rezeeq and Abdulmajid Ahmed Alhagbani.
