@MBradley70 – “Must say I thought Issac Hayden was superb at centre half today.”

@NewcastleToons – “The overall performance from #NUFC raised some red flags, but two goals from Almiron and Gayle secured three important points.”

@daddydoots77 – “Not a great game for #nufc and #wba will feel unlucky. Wilson and Hayden best in black and white. But Gallagher ran the show for a chunk of the game. Good prospect.”
