Newcastle fans might be asking Jason Tindall to manage every game after tonight's result.
The Magpies cruised to a 5-0 win over Crystal Palace while their assistant manager stepped in for Eddie Howe, who missed the clash after taking ill with pneumonia last week.
Five goals, five different goalscorers, and one of them was Newcastle's £70m-rated target last summer - Marc Guehi - who scored an own goal to put the hosts 2-0 up.
Before then, Jacob Murphy opened the scoring with his third goal in as many games.
