A brace by Obafemi Martins secured a 2-0 win for Newcastle over Aston Villa last night.
“I think it’s very important for a striker to score goals and I’m very happy today that I scored two goals,” he told Setanta Sports.
“I have to thank my team-mates as well because they really tried. We’re happy today.”
“The gaffer has been a success,” he continued on Kinnear. “He’s doing all his best for us just to try to push us in training.
“He told us in training that if we put more effort in it will help in the games as well.
“He helped us a lot today. I think he’s doing his best.
“I think – all the players – we don’t have any problem with Kinnear because he’s doing his best and I hope he stays.”
