A whole host of Newcastle United fans were left annoyed on Twitter as a very concerning stat surfaced.

The Magpies yet again failed to win a game on Saturday when they had to settle for a 3-3 draw against Brentford, despite taking the lead in the first half and attempting 23 shots during the match.

Will Newcastle survive this season?

Yes!

Yes!

No!

No!

It was set to be Eddie Howe’s first time in the dugout as Newcastle manager until he was forced to sit it out, but there were signs of improvement and that the players had taken on board some of his tactics and instructions, given it was the first time they had scored three goals this season and their 52% possession was a lot higher than the 37.9% they have managed across the season to date.

Although these are positive steps for Newcastle, they are now the only club out of the 92 Football League clubs still yet to win in the league.

A lot of Newcastle fans are very angry with this stat on Twitter.

What have these Newcastle fans been saying?

“Embarrassing”

@casson933

“that is an awful stat”

@georgewrightttt

“Would be a miracle to stay up”

@OliGouffran

“Pathetic.”

@TomMason19

“So depressing”

@agbnufc_

“as if it’s not bad enough already hahhahahaha”

@NUFCRyxn

Newcastle now sit rock-bottom of the Premier League and five points from safety, but they will be hoping that once Howe is in the dugout, results could start to turn around and they can avoid relegation under their new owners.
