For Newcastle. I admit to beginning the season very nervous about our prospects of even making the play-offs, with all the Forest fans I know making noises about how Collocini and Jonas were gonna struggle when we’re playing away in tight compact stadiums with big nasty players who earnt their corn kicking players up in the air like a certain Morgan who plays for Sheffield United ;)   Yeah there were certain games where we didn’t perform like we could and the 4 losses away from home confirm that, but most of the season we looked confident.  My optimism soon grew in that by the time Christmas had come around I thoguht we had a great chance to win the league, and that was all but confirmed when we beat Forest at St James’ Park with a wonder goal from Jose Enrique (only a wonder goal as it was his first in professional football, and he’s been our best performer all season)  Anyway I’m glad we won the league and added a few faces in the transfer window.  I know I’m more an armchair fan, but was happy with making it to atleast 2 away games last season (Sheffield United and Doncaster Rovers)  and had I not waited to the last minute I could well have gone for the last game of the season, and done the stadium tour and everything with it.  Shame, but I have a feeling we’ll be getting tickets to Newcastle vs Liverpool, so hopefully it’ll be a Saturday game so we can do the tour before that game :D
