Dan Neil is relishing the opportunity to play against Sheffield Wednesday, who beat the lads 3-0 in the reverse fixture at Hillsborough...
CHRISTMAS
“I’m sure lots of supporters have had tickets for Christmas and returned to the North East for the festive period, so it should be a great occasion and a really good atmosphere."
NEW YEAR
"We have started the season well and we enter the New Year in a strong position, but we want to keep building that momentum and end 2021 with three points.”
SIZE OF CLUBS
"Thursday’s game is between two massive clubs – you only have to look at the history books and the size of both fan bases. I’m sure they will travel in numbers and the noise created by our supporters will make it feel like a real occasion, but as players, we also want to react to the result in the reverse fixture."
TOP SPOT
‘We want to end the season in top spot [not just the calendar year], but that all starts with a big performance tomorrow.”
