Newcastle United are in crisis, with their Premier League season unraveling after surrendering another lead against Crystal Palace. Had they preserved their losing positions, they’d be second in the table, but a 25-point drop from ahead leaves them trailing by five points. Manager Eddie Howe calls the trend a "blight," as seven losses in their last 10 games spark fears of a disastrous finish.
The club’s failure to close matches—highlighted by their 2-1 defeat at Palace—has eroded fan support, with supporters refusing to applaud players post-match. This collapse threatens Howe’s future, as the team’s European aspirations hang in the balance.
