Negotiating teams from the two sides were close to agreement with an announcement expected in the next 24 hours.
Trust chairman Norman Beverley said: "It's been a long process, but we have to make sure we get it right.
"There are still some little things to sort out, but nothing problematical.
"It's looking good, but at this stage we must make certain nothing is going to hurt us in the long-term."
The takeover has been delayed because former chairman Brendan Elwood had not sanctioned the deal.
