Jermaine Jenas has revealed Sir Bobby Robson's fury after Newcastle United were thrashed at home by eventual champions Manchester United. The Magpies had an outside chance of mounting a title challenge when they hosted the Red Devils on April 12, 2003.
Jenas gave Newcastle the dream start with a long-range screamer, but a hat-trick from Paul Scholes and strikes from Ryan Giggs, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, and Ruud van Nistelrooy ensured the visitors earned a crushing 6-2 win. Shola Ameobi grabbed a late consolation, and the Magpies would go on to finish third.
Jenas has revealed Newcastle did not train on the following Monday, but were instead put through a painful examination of the humbling defeat. The BBC Sport pundit insists Sir Bobby's scrutiny of every moment of the contest ensured there was 'nowhere to hide' for anyone in the dressing room.
