Amanda Staveley insists her Saudi-backed consortium doesn't want a battle with the Premier League over their Newcastle United takeover push.
The deal collapsed a year ago after the Saudi state's Public Investment Fund withdrew, after disagreements and delays over it reaching approval by the Premier League who will run an owner and directors test.
But Staveley has confirmed that the PIF and still in the background ready buyout Sport Direct tycoon Mike Ashley, who is desperate to sell.
Staveley said: “We are all still there, and are all still passionate about Newcastle - all consortium members are.
"I have made it very clear."
Despite taking legal action against the Premier League, Staveley added: “One thing I want to make clear is that we want to have good relations with the Premier League.
"We're trying to become part of their institution. I don't want to draw battle lines, I want to say: 'Look this process is going on and we want to buy and invest in the club'.
"We are huge fans of football at all levels, grassroots levels is very important, so we are very supportive of Mike and we hope we can be supportive of the Premier League.
"We would never have backed a Euro Super League plan and I am hoping in the future, there's a way forward.
"We'd like the Premier League to run the arbitration in public.
"Mike would like the same and every question about how committed we were, what we want to do, it can be answered.
"I think it is an opportunity for the Premier League to take a view that they welcome transparency as well."
