Dwight Gayle hailed the Crystal Palace fans for victory over Leicester City on Saturday.

Palace have managed to get away from the relegation zone and make the fifth round of the FA Cup.

Gayle told the Croydon Advertiser: "We now move on to Newcastle, which is the gaffer's old team and hopefully we can get a result for him, which would be nice for him.

"The fans were like our 12th man again (at Leicester). Every week they turn in in their great numbers and obviously out-singing the home fans - it feels like a home game for us.

"Everyone is buzzing with the results at the moment. It may not have been our best performance at Leicester but the sign of a good team is sometimes when you don't play so well."
