Owen Says Keegan Has Not Improved Confidence!
But results have hardly improved and Owen is the first to say the confidence in the camp is "not very good" and admits there is "nervousness throughout the side".
Owen: "Confidence isn't at its best.
"There is nervousness throughout the side.
"We need a win and the sooner the better. As soon as we get that I think confidence will come flooding back.
"We've got an awful lot of games left and we aren't in the relegation zone at the moment.
"We're not at panic stations but we are obviously well aware we need to get a result - and fast.
"This game against Blackburn on Saturday is one you look at and think Newcastle at home should be getting something out of it."
