Duff revels in scoring against old club

DAMIEN DUFF admitted he took great pleasure in twisting the knife into former club Newcastle after their striker misery deepened in last night’s Barclays Premier League defeat at Fulham.

Duff netted his first league goal for almost a year to settle a tight affair and propel the in-form Cottagers to 12th in the table, one point behind their opponents.

It was another night to forget for Newcastle, who lost Shola Ameobi to a suspected fractured cheekbone just 13 minutes in, less than 48 hours after selling star striker Andy Carroll to Liverpool.
