It would be an understatement to say that Newcastle fans aren’t too pleased with their weekend result against Brighton.
ICYMI: Highlights from yesterday’s game at St. James’ Park, with commentary from @bbcnewcastle‘s @raisbeck10 and John Anderson, are available to watch on demand on NUFC TV.

Steve Bruce’s 0-0 draw with the south coast side was a disappointing spectacle for supporters who endured the 90 minutes of fairly uninteresting football.
Yet despite the result and the performance, the club’s official Twitter account saw it fit to post extended highlights from the match.
Of course, supporters saw the irony in the video and took to social media to take aim at Newcastle.
Here is what some fans had to say on Twitter…
‘Highlights’ is a strong term for it.

Just a bit of advice – don’t watch this if you want to feel depressed

Is it just a 10 second clip of Carroll coming on?

30 secs? That’s about 29 secs too long!

Rather watch paint dry than watch one of the most boring Newcastle games if not the most boring Newcastle game

The result puts Newcastle just above the relegation zone in the Premier League table.
