Mehrdad Ghodoussi makes new Newcastle United atmosphere claim after Man Utd win at St James' Park

Mehrdad Ghodoussi has thanked Newcastle United fans for their "incredible" support during the 1-0 win over Manchester United on Saturday night.

The Magpies recorded a sixth successive Premier League win at St James' Park and in turn moved up to fifth in the table following Anthony Gordon's 56th minute winner.

It was also the first time Newcastle have recorded three straight wins over the Red Devils since 1922.

Reacting to the result on X after the game, Ghodoussi said: "Thank you for your incredible support tonight. St James’ rocked."

Meanwhile, fellow co-owner Jamie Reuben added: "Incredible performance and character shown by our @NUFC - I love this team and club. UP THE MAGS".

Ghodoussi appeared to criticise the Tyneside atmosphere after last weekend's 4-1 victory over Chelsea as he urged fans "to be louder" and be the "12th man".

Newcastle fans reacted angrily but all was forgotten when Ghodoussi issued a heartfelt message prior to the 1-1 draw against Paris Saint-Germain on Tuesday.

He said: "Often, our intentions and words don't align perfectly. I believe most of you know how deeply I'm committed to this club; my heart beats in black and white, and my love for the club and all of you is unwavering.

"Let's keep our fingers crossed for tonight, we stand united. Here's to us and our journey together. Howay the Lads #NUFC"

Wor Flags delivered another excellent pre-match display in tribute to head coach Eddie Howe. The banner, which read "let's give it to them" was in reference to Howe's pre-match teamtalk ahead of the win over Man Utd in April.

The clip went viral after it was included in Amazon Prime 'We are Newcastle United' documentary.
