Newcastle fans created a fantastic atmosphere at St James’ Park in the vital 3-1 win over Everton on Tuesday night, with the help of Wor Flags.
The club feels united right now and the results on the pitch are only going to contribute to that feeling of growing momentum.
The atmosphere certainly caught the attention of BT Sport presenter Jake Humphrey, who said that it can have a tangible impact on results.
Under the previous regime, the fans were pushed to one side as a team was assembled which did not aspire to do anything other than survive.
That is the immediate aim for Newcastle now but if it can be achieved, then their ambitions are far grander than that for the seasons ahead.
Aston Villa are the next visitors to St James’ Park and they will likely be greeted by the same wall of noise and the fans will be hoping for the same result.
Steven Gerrard has improved Villa since going in there but they remain open defensively at times and that is something Newcastle can exploit.
Villa will test Eddie Howe’s new-look defence too, and of course Matt Targett will not be eligible to play against his parent club.
