Newcastle United co-owner Mehrdad Ghodoussi has praised the St James’ Park faithful for creating an “incredible atmosphere” against Brighton and Hove Albion.

Eddie Howe’s side beat the Seagulls 2-1 in front of their own fans to extend our Premier League unbeaten run to eight games.

With Leeds United, Burnley and Norwich City all losing yesterday, it was a great day at the office for the Magpies.

The Toon Army’s latest three points moved us onto 28 points which means we are now seven points clear of the relegation places.

We are now 14th in the table and only five points off Crystal Palace, who occupy tenth place.

St James’ Park has almost been reawakened ever since the club’s lucrative takeover went through.

There are no longer the moans and groans, the cries of anguish and looks of despair that were so apparent during the Mike Ashley and Steve Bruce tenure.

The Geordies are now full of hope and optimism following PIFs takeover.

It’s evident that Ghodoussi continues to be blown away by the cauldron of noise the fans inside SJP can create.

Yesterday was no different and with the Wor Flags in full flow it proved to be a springboard and catalyst in helping propel the Magpies to another crucial three points.

The atmosphere continues to be electric and there is no doubt that as the team and project grows, the decibel levels at SJP are only likely to increase.

Imagine what it’s going to be like when European nights are back in Tyneside under the lights, it’s going to be something special.

But instead of getting carried away Newcastle United let’s focus on the job in hand that Howe and his side are currently excelling in.
