Our resident Newcastle United supporting punters here inside the Football Transfer Tavern are in jovial spirits, as the club currently sit top of the Sky Bet Championship.
It certainly has not been plain sailing for Rafa Benitez’s side this season, with south coast outfit Brighton and Hove Albion running the mighty Toon close so far.
With the season reaching the business end, it is essential that the Magpies deliver consistent results to ensure a top two spot and an immediate return to the top-flight.
Our landlord here in the Tavern has been scrolling through Twitter and noticed that it is the big man, Daryl Murphy’s birthday, with the striker turning 33 today.
And, as ever, the response from the Newcastle United faithful has been brilliant, and our landlord has decided to handpick some of the best reaction to the Republic of Ireland striker’s big birthday.
See the best reaction to the striker’s birthday below….

@NUFC @FAIreland Happy birthday! I under-rated you when you were signed. A good backup to Gayle, even surpassing Mitro in strikers rating
