I don't think you can say we did enough to win that, but we did not deserve to lose it. Absolutely done over by PGMOL. Newcastle should have been down to 10 men, and that goal is nonsense. Ball out, possible foul, but obvious offside. Officials not fit for purpose.

Not quite sure what to say. Conceded sloppy goals and could have dropped points today. But when a team scores late goals to win games as often as we do, it's not a fluke. The ability to keep going and to grind it out, on days don't play well, is invaluable.

It’s a measure of our season that a draw feels so disappointing. Newcastle very tough to play against, just men behind the ball all the time. It does show that on nights like this, greater attacking depth from the bench is so important. Let’s get that done ASAP hopefully.
