Not The Return He Hoped For

He is still a hero on Tyneside, but . . Norwich City boss Chris Hughton was left lamenting a poor opening half as his side slumped to their fourth away defeat in a row. The former Newcastle manager was pleased with his side’s response but said the damage was already done after a disastrous opening half. Chris Hughton: “You can’t afford to be 2-0 at half-time, and certainly not one down in the opening minutes. “That’s the frustrating part of the game, there was nothing over-elaborate about their opening goal. “We’ve shown a little bit of pride and a little bit of commitment to come back in the second period.” Source: Newcastle United Mad
