Newcastle finish on 100 points

Newcastle boss Chris Hughton celebrated as his side racked up a century of points with a 1-0 win at QPR on Sunday. The Magpies make an immediate return to the Premiership and became the fourth team to reach three figures in a season after romping to the title.

"It feels great," said Hughton. "It was the least of our targets but an important one. We've achieved our three big targets - promotion, then winning the title and keeping our home record.

"But we have a very competitive changing room and it will be wonderful for this group of lads to look back on.

"It might be a different division to what this club is used to being in but it's a very big achievement."
