Peter Løvenkrands today thanked Newcastle United ... and the fans ... for helping him through a traumatic few months. Peter Løvenkrands: “It’s been a hard couple of months for me with the death of my father and they (Newcastle supporters) have been a massive help. “I really, really appreciate the support the fans have given me and I can’t thank them enough. “Even when you are going for a warm up it feels amazing to have the fans clapping and cheering you. “When I get on, the backing means so much. “Playing for Newcastle has given me something to take my mind off things. It helps going out there and trying to focus on other things, even going into training helps. But it’s still very hard, you still get moments when it all gets on top of you. “It can be really tough and that’s when it’s great to have the players and the fans behind you. “It was a really difficult decision to play against West Brom but I want to help Newcastle get up. When I did what I did after he had died, it just felt like the right thing to do and I think people appreciated it. “I thought about it for a long time, but I think I made the right choice. It’s what my dad would have wanted and it was what I needed to help me get my head around things.”
