Newcastle lost again at JJB stadium against Wigan.  This time it was 2-1.  The goal from Guthrie was the first one Newcastle have ever scored against Wigan at JJB.  A win here would have been huge boost to the Newcastle players and fans alike, as they would have been propelled into the top half of the table. The magpies never showed any style, determination and agility, which they had displayed in recent games, and the result was sadly a deserved one.

Final Score: Wigan Athletics 2 - 1 Newcastle United
