There's no joy for Shearer in his first match in charge at St James' Park and the Toon are looking likely candidates for the drop.
Newcastle are now odds-on to be relegated on Betfair following their 2-0 home defeat by Chelsea.
The situation at the bottom of the table became a lot clearer today after a win for Stoke at bottom-placed West Brom and a goalless draw between Hull and Portsmouth left Alan Shearer's men, Middlesbrough and the Baggies detached in the relegation zone.
Blackburn leapt clear of the strugglers with a 2-1 come-from-behind victory over Tottenham that rewarded in-running backers at [55.0].
West Brom are almost unbackable to exit the league at [1.01] while Boro, battered at Bolton this afternoon, trade at [1.26].
Hull are [3.2] to be playing Championship football next season while Sunderland ([5.0]), Stoke ([7.0]) and Portsmouth ([7.2]) are the only other teams trading in single figures.
Arsenal's 2-0 win over Manchester City saw their odds for a top four finish harden to 1.18.
