Colo: Team Were Angered & Frustrated After Hull Defeat

Newcastle United captain Fabricio Coloccini has spoken out after his side's 3-2 defeat against Hull at St James' Park on Saturday afternoon. He recognised the same emotions in the team as expressed by the fans throughout the performance and at the final whistle and spoke of their frustration, and anger but insisted that they now need to move on and start concentrating on their midweek Cup game.

He said;

"There were bad feelings after Hull - frustration, anger and everything you would expect.

But we have a game on Wednesday and we have to turn the page right now. We must look to the next game.

If we want to be serious about being in the top 10 or look to bigger things or be a big team in the Premier League, we have to start to take the chances we have. If not, we are going to have problems.

We do not want to be like we were last season. We ended the season fighting against relegation - we can't have that again, so we have to look at our mistakes and keep going.

When we have chances to beat teams like Hull, we have to take them. We have to learn. Now we have to look to Leeds, get the win and go through in the Cup."
