NEWCASTLE took control of the Premier Trophy Final with an impressive 58-36 win over Birmingham in Sunday's first leg.
The Diamonds dominated at Brough Park with Rene Bach and skipper Jason King both unbeaten by an opposing rider.
But boss George English is keen to stress that the job is far from complete ahead of the second leg at Perry Barr on Wednesday.
English said: "22 points is an excellent margin to carry down to the second leg at Birmingham on Wednesday night, but I’m still disappointed that we did not win by more as we lost a good few points with very poor refereeing decisions.
"But 22 points is it and we’re not going to get over-confident as that would be a fatal mistake. We are going into that match the same as any other - we need to win and we’ll be going for that."
