Demba Ba (twice) and Sylvain Marveaux were on the scoresheet in North London. And with that in mind, we decided to take a look at the Magpies starting XI and subs from that miserable day – and find out where they are now. Scroll and click through the pages to see where each player is now:
1. Tim Krul
The adopted Geordie remains a popular figure on Tyneside, as shown in his visit to St James’s Park with Norwich City in the Premier League a few weeks ago when the home fans sang his name. Photo: Clive Mason
2. Danny Simpson
Simpson, 33, was snapped up by relegated Huddersfield following his release from Leicester City. He has played 18 times in the Championship this season as the Terriers look to retain their second-tier status. Photo: Stu Forster
3. James Perch
At the age of 34-years-old, 'Perchino' is spending the latter years of his career in League Two at Scunthorpe United. He is out-of-contract in the summer. Who thinks Steve Bruce should bring him home? Photo: GLYN KIRK
4. Fabricio Coloccini
The former Newcastle captain is still at boyhood club San Lorenzo - the club he left the Magpies for in 2016. Being 38-years-old, his game time in Argentina is often dictated by his own fitness. Photo: Stu Forster
