F is for... Frustration
Pod On The Tyne: The Athletic FC's Newcastle United show - A podcast by The Athletic
It was the sort of weekend that needs an extra day to get over. Eddie Howe's men dominated the first half hour (or hour, depending on who you ask) against Brighton. They played some of their best football of the season so far, and created a hatful of chances. Unfortunately, they didn't score any of them and lost. On Sunday, Becky Langley's Lasses squared up to well fancied Charlton Athletic in the Women's Championship, played electric football on the break, and Shania Hayles continued her hot form streak by scoring our first ever hat-trick at this level. Unfortunately, we lost the skipper to a second yellow and conceded twice in injury time to drop two points. The Lasses have a week off now for internationals, while the men head to Chelsea this coming weekend. Can we find our scoring boots and get one over on our rivals for the European places at a ground where joy has been few and far between? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
