Many Newcastle United fans have reacted on Twitter after Chris Maguire sent a cheeky dig to the club on his Twitter account.
While answering questions on a live video on his Twitter account, he told his followers that he would never play for Newcastle United if he had the chance.
When asked who would he rather play for out of Rangers and Newcastle, he responded to the question while taking a sip from his Celtic mug, stating that he would never play for either club, prompting a response from the Magpies’ supporters.
Here is the video below, which was shared by Sunderland’s official Twitter account…

While the Newcastle fans might be right about him not being able to say much considering the club he plays for at the moment, at the end of the day it is all just a little bit of fun which many can get behind.
