"'There is no excuse for it,' he told Sky Sports. 'It is a disappointing performance and result, and we have to take that on the chin. 'We defended their throws and set-pieces well in the first half, and then it went from bad to worse with the penalty, and then we never really recovered.'"

Newcastle lost 3-1 at Brentford, surrendering a halftime lead and dropping to 14th in the Premier League, two points above the relegation zone. Harvey Barnes scored after a Nick Woltemade assist, but Brentford dominated the second half and equalised from a long throw when Michael Kayode’s delivery was headed in by Kevin Schade. A Dan Burn challenge on Dango Ouattara resulted in a penalty and a red card; Igor Thiago converted the spot-kick and added a stoppage-time goal. Newcastle have now lost three consecutive away Premier League games and have dropped more points from winning positions than any other side (nine).
