Newcastle United owners' first year has 'exceeded expectations' ahead of next 'big question'

For me, the last year could not have gone any better both on and off the pitch. The dialogue between the new owners and the supporters - the relationship is magnificent.

They're getting involved in every area of the club, the Foundation, the food banks. They're turning up at supporters' meetings, they're supporting the manager, his staff and the players by giving them the best facilities they can at this moment in time.

I know they're adding things to the current training ground, and they're looking to build their own training facility which would take them into the 21st century straight away. It's just been sensational, it's given the whole city a lift.
