A tightly-contested affair saw chances for both sides go amiss as Adam Lawrence's side failed to find a valuable breakthrough.
Gabriele Biancheri had the ball in the net after 18 minutes but the young forward was adjudged to have failed to beat the offside trap in the process.
Jim Thwaites also went close during the second period with a wicked free-kick but Magpies goalkeeper Will Anderson was equal to his drive.
FIRST HALF
Victor Musa's high energy caused Newcastle some threat early on as he carved open an opportunity for Biancheri. The latter saw his shot saved by Anderson with the game just a few minutes old.
