After taking charge of the Eagles' 4-0 FA Cup victory over Dover he refused to discuss his Toon exit, adding it was "for another day".
He said: "I think we have a press conference on Thursday where I will talk more about [leaving Newcastle], but as far as I am concerned this is Crystal Palace's day and I'm pleased for Crystal Palace.
"The fans showed one of the reasons why I have come here, their support was phenomenal and I thank them for that.
"They’ve been absolutely brilliant for this football club in the last 18 months, and we need to keep that noise level as it was today [Sunday], excellent.
"It was lovely. The fans, I’m fortunate that they already have a special bond with me from my playing days."
It was interesting to note that during his four years at Newcastle he never had much interest in the FA Cup. He does now!
"I said to the players that an FA Cup run gives confidence, and it breeds a winning mentality. It was important we won the game. Like any cup competition, if you’re in it you can win it."

CARVER - YES OR NO?
Do you want John Carver as Newcastle United manager?
John Carver will be in control for the FA Cup - insisting he will be going for glory against Leicester City in the third round tie.
The caretaker boss even joked he was eager to get to Wembley because he needs a new suit.
When asked of the importance of the competition to North-East fans, Carver - who went to Wembley in 1999 with Ruud Gullit and back again for a last four clash with Sir Bobby Robson - said: “Very.
“I’ve been to a final and semi-final.
“The ovation we got when we didn’t even win it against Chelsea was incredible.
“It was probably the best we played when we lost 2-1.
“It would be nice for people to go to Wembley.
“And nice for me because I need a new suit.”

CHELSEA v NEWCASTLE UTD Saturday Jan 10th
STAMFORD BRIDGE - CHELSEA
What Is It Like For Away Supporters?
Away fans are located on one side of the Shed End lower tier (towards the East Stand side), where the normal allocation for league games is 3,000 tickets. For cup games the whole of the Shed End can be allocated. The view from this area of the ground is pretty good and the refreshment areas are modern looking. There are televisions on the concourses, showing amongst other things at half time, highlights from the first half. There is a range of food and drink on offer, but like a number of London Premier League Clubs it is quite pricey; 'Shed Load' Burgers (£5.60), Chicken Strips and Lattice Fries (£6), Hot Dogs (£4.20), Corn on the Cob (£4.20), Chicken Curry Pie (£3.80), Minced Beef and Onion Pie (£3.80) and Lattice Fries (£3.90). Alcohol is also available in the form of Singha Beer (bottle £4.20).
On the whole I found Stamford Bridge a pleasurable day out. There was a good atmosphere within the ground and even though there wasn't a lot of space between the home and away fan sections, in didn't feel intimidating. The stewards were also pretty laid back. I was seated in the Shed End and I did find a little difficult to go up and down the steps of the stand, due to the stand itself being quite steep and the steps between rows quite small. The only ‘real hassle' I had was trying to get through the lines of stewards situated outside the stadium at the entrance to the away section. They seemed to assume that I was a Chelsea fan and kept ushering me towards the home end. Only after showing my ticket for the visiting section for a third time did I finally make it inside!
