Brentford striker Ivan Toney insists scoring in their 3-3 draw at former club Newcastle United wasn't about revenge.
For Toney, there was no sense of bitterness as he marked his return to Tyneside with a goal and a goal-line clearance from Callum Wilson.
He told the Bees' official website: “Whatever happened in the past, maybe I wasn't ready, maybe I wasn't good enough, who knows? But at the time, the club had a decision to make and the decision was to let me go.
“But there are no hard feelings.
"The club still holds a special place in my heart and I'm sure it will forever because without the stepping stone of being at Newcastle, I wouldn't be where I am today, I don't think."
