Newcastle joy
STRIKERS Marlon Harewood and Shola Ameobi teamed up to fire Newcastle ten points clear at the top of the Coca-Cola Championship.
In front of record crowd for the division – since it was renamed – of 49,644, Harewood's 16th-minute strike and Ameobi's 59th-minute header were enough to see off derby rivals Middlesbrough, who now trail Newcastle by 20 points.
"We have got to make sure we continue to do the things that have got us here in the first place," said Newcastle manager Chris Houghton.
