My Favourite Year

What has been your favourite season following the Toon?

My first two seasons of going week in/week out to home games were the 1977/78 relegation season and the dismal following one in division two.

I can honestly say though that they were my very best ones supporting Newcastle United,; win, lose or draw the highlight of my fortnight was watching dismal football in a dilapidated stadium. First in the queue for the Old (Milburn) Stand Paddock after collecting those priceless autographs.

A choice of Bovril & wagon wheels, or wagon wheels & Bovril at half time.

Keegan, Robson and the Champions League – great days but nothing can touch my youth.
