Eddie Howe has warned his players to avoid venturing into Newcastle city centre after midnight. Newcastle’s manager was shocked to learn that his club captain, Jamaal Lascelles, had become involved in a 4am brawl outside a nightclub last month.
Although Lascelles seemingly played no part in instigating the fracas and apparently stepped in to protect his younger brother, Howe appeared unimpressed with the events that unfolded after Newcastle flew back from a Saturday night defeat at Manchester City a fortnight ago.
