Eddie Howe's smile after Crystal Palace boo Newcastle off the pitch as feathers ruffled again

There was once a time where a point at Selhurst Park was as good as celebrated by Newcastle United. Not anymore.

Newcastle may have set new club records, after extending their unbeaten run in the top-flight to 15 games and keeping a sixth successive clean sheet, but the reaction of players and staff following Saturday's goalless draw against Crystal Palace was rather telling. Kieran Trippier admitted it was a 'missed opportunity'. Bruno Guimaraes felt 'frustrated'. Eddie Howe revealed it was a 'disappointed' changing room.

It was another sign of how far Newcastle had come. This is a side, after all, who had just moved back up to third in the table and opened up a six-point gap on fifth-placed Spurs yet, still, they wanted more.
