Former Newcastle United striker Shola
Ameobi is disappointed to see the club struggling to
survive relegation in the English Premier League.
Newcastle are currently in 18th place on the log, with
just 24 points from 26 games.
They suffered a 5-1 thrashing at the hands of
Chelsea on Saturday after several defeats, a situation
that has now left the Nigeria international
disappointed.
"It's very disappointing as a fan. That's what I am,
first and foremost. I want to see my hometown do
well and it's obviously worrying times at the
moment,” he said on Eatsleep Football.
"But you've got to continue to have faith and belief
that the guys can pull it out of the bag. They've
certainly got the quality to be able to do that and I
just hope that's the case."
Ameobi, 34, is a product of the Newcastle youth set-
up and went on to play over 300 times for the senior
side during a 19-year stay. Last week, he penned a
deal with League One side Fleetwood Town.
