GARY NEVILLE is predicting a wild night on Tyneside after Newcastle ended their 70-year trophy drought.
The Manchester United legend was on Sky Sports commentary as Toon beat Liverpool 2-1 in the Carabao Cup final at Wembley.

Neville admitted to almost being “in tears” with emotional Newcastle fans as Alexander Isak netted the second after the break.
Eddie Howe’s men were pegged back in the final stages after Federico Chiesa netted late in stoppage time.
But they held on to end seven decades of hurt and win a first domestic trophy since 1955.
Speaking directly to pub owners in the North East, Neville said: “If you’re a publican in Newcastle and you usually close on a Sunday, go and get it open.”
He then predicted there would be a “Geordie Bank Holiday” after “black and white” bedlam at the Home of Football.
Neville added with a laugh: “Try getting that lot into work tomorrow.”
The Magpies had lost five Wembley finals in a row since their last triumph in 1955.
Howe spoke out before the game that he believed the club was not “cursed” and his players could “make history”.
