Lee Clarks encourages Newcastle

Lee Clark had some words of encouragement after scoring the winner against Newcastle on Saturday.

He left for Sunderland almost six years ago and has obviously worked on his finishing.

Lee Clark said:

"Newcastle's season has been fantastic

"They were in the title race right up to the wire and obviously the last few games have just knocked the stuffing out of them.

"But that doesn't take away the fact that they have got one of the best young squads in the country that will get better season by season as they gain more experience.

"They have been absolutely superb in the Champions League this season against some of the best teams in Europe so they've been tremendous. That third spot is the least they deserve.

"Newcastle's special, everyone knows that. The club is special to me, I grew up there and was at the club from the age of 10 - for more than 15 years.

"That is where I was born and bred and that's the team I've supported all my life. But at the end of the day I am a professional footballer and I'm playing for Fulham, and I've had a great time here.

"The supporters have been brilliant with me so I always want to give my best for them, which meant giving 100 per cent against Newcastle. Hopefully though, they can go on and win their remaining games." Vote for your MOTM vs Fulham!
