Re: Where should I insert this before filter? AppController or AppModel?

class AppController extends Controller {
var $components = array('DebugKit.Toolbar', 'Session');

function beforeFilter()
{
// ricava la variabile di sessione
$id = $this->Session->read('editable_season_id');

// se non esiste o è un valore non valido
if((is_null($id)) || (!is_numeric($id)))
{
// importa modello Season
App::import('Model', 'Season');

// cerca l'id della stagione più recente
$id = $this->Season->getLastSeasonId();
....

gave me:
Undefined property: PagesController::$Season [CORE\cake\libs\controller
\app_controller.php, line 50]
Fatal error: Call to a member function getLastSeasonId() on a non-
object in C:\wamp\www\cakephp\cake\libs\controller\app_controller.php
on line 50

Line 50 is: $id = $this->Season->getLastSeasonId();
Why?
