WELCOME
My name is Alex Storey and I'll be your host for this one, providing you with live updates as they happen at St James' Park.

There wasn't a great deal of attacking play from the hosts but when they did go forward they looked a threat.
It's six goals (and two braces) for the season for the former Bournemouth man.
