NEWCASTLE (H) the verdict .... Magpies downed by rampant Robins

We've all been around long enough not to get too carried away by a 4-1 pre-season friendly win against Premier League side Newcastle United but there was much to admire about City as they raced to a 3 goal lead inside 50 minutes.

Newcastle fans numbered 3400 in an incredible match attendance (21500) for a friendly with all in the ground standing for a minutes applause to celebrate the life of Kevin Keegan who recently passed away.

Eddie Howe resigned as Newcastle's manager less than 24 hours after the final whistle and even allowing for his team's training schedule being behind City they did not sparkle at all.
