it hasjust been champions league and bobby robson. it has just been a long time coming. a lot of heartache and a lot of downs. we've now got new ownership. everybody seems to be pulling in the right direction, the same direction, like we had with kevin keegan and sir john hall many, many years back. manager eddie howe is doing a fantasticjob. brought in some brilliant, brilliant players. i think the recruitment has been exceptional. and we deserved to be in there and it is going to be very, very interesting to see how we do because we are in a very, very tough group. there's also been some more sobering news from milan, with police confirming a newcastle fan has been stabbed. they say they are opening an investigation. the supporter, who has wounds to the arm and back, is expected to be released from hospital later today. newcastle have issued a statement saying they're deeply concerned and they are liaising with local authorities to understand the circumstances. "our thoughts are with the supporter and theirfamily and we hope for a full and speedy recovery." manchester
