Disappointed, but saw some positives.
Where.......
At times we passed it about well, except for the final ball.
First half we were the better team. Pearson will have learnt a lot tonight :icon_wink
very disappointing second half... offered nothing, final ball was shite
...... and am I the only one who thinks that **** Gary Birtles is a ****?

God no !! Agree 1 million percent (in the words of Louis Walsh)
anyone would have thought he was an ex newcastle player the way he was rambling on.
The gulf between the two sides was so evident...our midfield got over ran.
All we could offer was highballs to Howard..that shows that when we come up against a really decent outfit,we struggle.
I could see why nigel opted for paul gallagher on the left,though it did not payoff.. the luxury of 2 wingers was never going to work
Newcastles movement was quality...on this showing i think mid-table to playoffs is what we can achieve at best.
