Its all doom and gloom at Newcastle !

Newcastle nearing Premier League exit after Portsmouth draw

----------------------------------------------------------GS GD P

16	Sunderland	34	(-15)	35
17	Hull City	34	(-22)	34
18	Newcastle	34	(-16)	31
19	Middlesbrough	34	(-24)	31
20	West Brom	34	(-30)	28

Newcastle could not beat Portsmouth which was potentially the must win game for them, Now they are 3 points from safety and 4 games to go. So they will be counting on the 2 remaining home games...if they can win both of those games then it is possible that they can survive, but at this moment of time they just cant buy a goal......Championship beckons for sorry Newcastle.

Here is the match report
