Following last night’s 4-1 win over Preston, Newcastle players celebrated a return to the Premier League, with several taking to social media to share their delight and pay tribute to the fans.
We’ve picked out some of the best reactions from last night’s promotion party, as the players and everyone associated with Newcastle United football club, past and present, expressed their delight at our return to the Premier League:
Wow! What a season. A lot of ups and downs but the fans stook with us and believed in us. You have been our rock all season and I couldn't
