Former Newcastle defender Steve Howey says the Magpies will not be sucked into a relegation battle - but admits their league position is "not good".
Eddie Howe's side are eight points clear of the bottom three with four Premier League games remaining.
Howey told BBC Radio Newcastle: "I don't think we'll be in a relegation battle but, ultimately, where they are in the league is not good considering where they have been in the league over the past couple of seasons.

Newcastle supporter Anas added: "I think we'll be OK but one more win will allow us just to breathe a bit more easily and put this season to bed."
