AMBROSE HAPPY
The game was switched from Kingston Park to Gallowgate and Ambrose added that the change of surroundings played a big part in the victory.
He said: "The pitch was the difference, really. When we've played at Kingston Park we've put on some really good performances but it's even better at St James' Park.
"And it was a great result. When we played West Brom away we didn't play well and they hammered us but this time we showed what we could do.
"I hadn't scored for a while and the last goal had come for the first team against Breda so I thought I was due one or two. It was nice to get a couple and that builds up your confidence. I was really pleased with how it went."
Ambrose is still trying to make a break into the regular first team, but was delighted to see some regulars back.
He added: "It's really good to see Kieron back as there has been something missing from us the past few weeks.
"It looks like he'll be OK for the Manchester City game on Saturday and hopefully we can get the right result.
"It's also good to have Jonathan Woodgate back as he's such a solid defender. All credit to Titus Bramble and Andy O'Brien, who have done very well, but it's great to have him back as well."
