Brandonio's post below spot on

we were playing like it was still the 1950s. Two defenders at times - full backs way too far forward.

Tactically, incredibly naive from Neil.

You won't stay up trying outscore better teams. Not saying Newcastle are better as such, but they were when given so much space on the counter.
