United manager Sir Alex Ferguson and chief executive David Gill met Lyn football director Andersen in Oslo on Monday to finalise a jointsubmission which must be handed to Fifa by 30 September.
The coalition government put the idea on hold over the summer, he said, but transport and defence ministers had now made a jointsubmission to the Treasury suggesting a private finance initiative (PFI) deal.
She has also offered to draw up a jointsubmission with the UK government in an effort to clarify the issue - although that has been rejected by Scottish Secretary Michael Moore, who said it was up to SNP ministers to set out detailed independence plans.
