Newcastle United fans have been reacting to injury news surrounding Callum Wilson ahead of this weekend’s game.

There has been plenty of talk surrounding the club in recent weeks. They’ve had to deal with the joy of finally having their takeover completed, followed by plenty of speculation about manager Steve Bruce and whether or not he was going to be in charge for the game.

With the game drawing closer though, matters must turn to what is happening on the pitch, and perhaps just as importantly, who is going to be playing. Speaking in his press conference, Bruce revealed the following injury update:

“The only ones not available are Dúbravka and Dummett. The captain [Jamaal Lascelles] is fit, Jonjo Shelvey is fit and Callum Wilson is fit.”

And it was the news that Wilson was going to be fit that left the supporters on Twitter very excited indeed:

“WILLLSOOOOONNNNN”

“Good to see Callum back we desperately need him fit”
“Best thing to come out his mouth all day”
“Easy W”
“This is pretty big news. Might not be wise to rush anyone back, but at least they’ll be fit again soon.”
“Wilson back, amazing news!”

Joy that you can certainly understand, he was their top scorer last season, and arguably represents their best shot at being able to get out of the relegation zone as soon as possible.
