The Warm Down: Magpies beat toothless Wolves to earn 250th Premier League victory at St James' Park

It was the total opposite of a Friday night classic in the North East, but Newcastle United took a huge step in their Premier League survival aspirations and crucially moved 10 points clear of the relegation zone as they ended their three-game winless run after a hard-fought 1-0 victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Chris Wood thought he had given The Magpies a first half lead only for VAR to have deemed that team-mate Bruno Guimaraes, by the tightest of margins, had strayed fractionally offsid

Clapton CFC sell 2,500 kits without ever playing a match

Newly formed non-league side Clapton CFC have sold more than 2,500 replica shirts despite having not yet played a competitive match.
