A 1-0 defeat against Stoke City at the end of September left Newcastle with just three points from their first six Premier League games.

"My gut feeling was that this group had more to offer," Pardew is quoted as saying by The Chronicle.
"I needed to get that to the surface, get it out there.
"That's the only message you can give as manager. It's not about what you say it's about what you deliver.
"We've managed to deliver it in the last couple of weeks."
