Eddie Howe was little more than two minutes into his post-match press conference following the 5-1 mauling at the hands of Spurs, but the Newcastle United head coach was keen to get a message to supporters ahead of Friday's sell-out at St James' Park against Wolves.
"We need the crowd and the stadium united and we need to make the atmosphere as intense as we can for our opponents because this is going to be a massive spell that really will go a long way to dictating our fate this season," Howe told reporters.
Six of Newcastle's last seven games have been away so players and staff are understandably excited to be back at St James' for the first of three crucial home fixtures in a row. Those involved are desperate to put that second-half performance at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium right after conceding four goals in 35 minutes.
