Before the match the away supporters gathered outside The Victoria Comet pub across the road from Central Station.

Hundreds of them soaked up the Newcastle sun, with videos shared across social media.

In an angry tweet, someone said: ‘AFC A disgrace from some of your fans!!!!’ showcasing the mess.
