Newcastle United players have reacted to their relegation to the Championship via Twitter.

Paul Dummett, Jamaal Lascelles and Rob Elliot took to the social media website to voice their views over the drop into the Championship.

Fellow strugglers Norwich City were also unable to beat the drop, despite beating Watford 4-1 on Wednesday night.
