Newcastle United supporters are in agreement that Eddie Howe is the best decision the Magpies' owners have had since taking over at the club. It's been an incredible year for black and white supporters, going from the brink of relegation to a near top-half finish.
The Magpies have made a solid start to the current campaign and are in the top six after nine rounds of fixtures - a feat that would have been almost unimaginable 12 months ago with Newcastle yet to win a game. Around 5,718, people took part in our one-year takeover anniversary survey.
Of those, 4,406 people (77%) said that appointing Howe was the best decision to owners had made and who can argue with that? The former Bournemouth boss arrived on Tyneside with his stock low having been relegated with the Cherries and question marks over his appointment.

However, he's proven his credentials and played a vital part in restoring supporters' pride. The Toon boss had a say on recruits in January and the summer window, a hugely important part in the Magpies survival and early season form.
So it should come as no surprise to see 514 people (9%) say that transfer signings were the best things the owners have done inside the opening 12 months. 291 people said that board appointments (5%) were the best thing, while another 280 (5%) people said removing Sports Direct advertising was their best moment.
Another 41 people said restoring Shearer's Bar (1%) to it's former glory was an important moment.
