Aleksandar Mitrovic's first-half goal beat the Baggies, who never looked like scoring, but the Magpies wasted countless chances to put the game to bed.

Cheick Tiote had a goal disallowed and Andros Townsend hit the post on his home debut, but it was Steve McClaren's other January signing, Jonjo Shelvey, who controlled the game.

The North East side climbed out of the bottom three with these three points and on the face of this performance, should be able to stay out of trouble.

Albion on the other hand, looked toothless up front and tactically inept.
