Danny Guthrie: "The fans were unbelievable.

"For a pre-season game that was something else. You don't get that at every club.

"I know what the fans are like - I played in the Kevin Keegan return game for Bolton last season and it was one of the best atmospheres I have ever played in.

"Playing at St James's Park when it's full is something that I am really looking forward to.

"Playing in front of the Liverpool fans is similar, but Newcastle's stadium is bigger, so I suppose they are going to be even louder and I can't wait for that moment.

"Coming to Newcastle just happened overnight for me.

"This is just the start of things - it's only a pre-season game and the season will only get better.

"It took a little deflection to score, but sometimes you need that, and if you don't have a shot you don't score.

"To get a goal, an assist and a win was a big bonus. The main thing was to get the rust off and get a feel of things again.

"The first week has been really tough. I've been finding out how things work up here.

"It's a really big club, but it's nice to finally play a game.

"It can only continue to get better for me.

"The tone has been set now and the boys have absolutely gave it everything. And we felt the benefit against Hartlepool.

"Towards the end, things were easier, but that's because of the fitness levels."
