Dan Burn & Matthias Jaissle send message to Newcastle United supporters after Carabao Cup exit
Everton 3-1 Newcastle United: Dan Burn and Matthias Jaissle have reacted to Thursday’s Carabao Cup exit.
Matthias Jaissle and Dan Burn delivered a message to disappointed Newcastle United supporters following Thursday’s 3-1 defeat at Everton.
Just under 8,000 supporters travelled to the Hill Dickinson Stadium for the Carabao Cup last-16 clash as Newcastle found themselves 3-0 down heading into the closing stages before Burn’s late consolation.
But by full-time, only a fraction of the away supporters remained in the ground to applaud the Newcastle side. There were even some boos that could be heard from the away end following the cup exit.

Dan Burn & Matthias Jaissle reaction
“I can understand frustrations completely, to an extent,” Newcastle captain Dan Burn said after the match. “We know it was a huge opportunity for us to progress, and this was our best chance to win [silverware]. It’s amazing that 8,000 fans get here to support us, but we’ve got to put that right on Monday.”
The Magpies will now be looking for a reaction against Everton on Monday night in the Premier League at St James’ Park.
When asked about the support at the Hill Dickinson Stadium on Thursday, Newcastle head coach Jaissle was told some supporters were potentially ‘disgusted’ by aspects of his side’s performance as they fell to a third away defeat in four, conceding 11 goals in the process.
In response to the fan reaction, Jaissle said: “Well, I think they were not happy with the result, and with the three occasions we defended when their position was scoring.
“Overall, I think they saw a team fighting, a team who create many, many occasions to score. So, I think also they saw the bigger picture.
“But, of course, they travel here, we wanted to give them a nice evening with a great result, that we come around further in that competition, and that was not succeeding. So, of course, we can understand also their frustration.”
