Yes, you read that correctly - Leyton Orient beat Newcastle United 6-1 in a preseason friendly today.
Yes, Newcastle United are now in the Football League Championship and Leyton Orient reside in League One, but that score is shocking for any Newcastle fan with hopes of getting back into the EPL. Yes, it's a friendly, but that is ridiculous.
It only took Orient 4 minutes to open the scoring. And they sure didn't let up after that. It gets even worse for Newcastle - their only goal came from a Joey Barton penalty! They couldn't score a goal in open play, yet they conceded six to a lower league side.
Oh dear.
Their first match of the season is only two weeks away. And isn't Mike Ashley still their owner?
