Newcastle boss Pardew hopes they've turned the corner

Newcastle United boss Alan Pardew hopes they've turned the corner after their recent run of form.

The Magpies continued their mini-revival as they dumped holders Manchester City out of the Capital One Cup with a shock 2-0 win in their fourth-round tie at the Etihad Stadium on Wednesday.

Pardew said: "I said to them (the players) they had seen a side of our fans which can be difficult, but now they are going to see the opposite because our fans are going to be up for this cup. No-one will get up for this cup as much as our fans.

"If we can get a victory at Liverpool, the new players in the group are going to see the other side of Newcastle fans, when we really can make a difference.

"In the last couple of games the fans have been terrific. They helped us last night and they helped us at Tottenham (last Saturday)."
