Newcastle United 1-3 Tottenham: Losing streak continues amid fan boycott

Relegation remains a danger for struggling Newcastle United after a home defeat to Tottenham.

Newcastle United failed to halt a dismal run of Premier League form on Sunday as the club was beaten 3-1 by Tottenham at a sparse St James' Park. 

Some supporters boycotted the game in protest at the running of the club and a perceived lack of ambition from the board.

For those who were in attendance, there was little cause for cheer as goals from Nacer Chadli, Christian Eriksen and Harry Kane eclipsed Jack Colback's effort to inflict a sixth consecutive defeat on the home side.

Chadli gave Mauricio Pochettino's side a halftime lead with a long-range strike 29 minutes in, though Tim Krul might have been able to do more to keep it out.
