Newcastle fans were in high spirits today after Newcastle United claimed a much-needed home victory over Crystal Palace. Eddie Howe's men broke down the Croydon side thanks to two second-half goals at St James' Park to hand the Magpies a much-needed Premier League victory.

It puts Newcastle on 29 points after 20 games and in with a shot of the top five if they beat Leeds in midweek. However, it took Howe's Plan B to steal the game after the break.

The clash kicked off with the temperature at minus 1 on Tyneside with evidence of snowfall from recent days still evident around the pitch. In the end, 2-0 was a fair reflection on the afternoon's play with Leeds next up at St James' Park.

Here are a selection of pictures from Newcastle's win:
