Let's be honest, at St Mary's Newcastle were gutless and embarrassing, and the loyal away support made their feelings known.
I was at St James' Park on Tuesday and the old guy next to me said: "I have come here all of my life and my heart has always been here.
"I've seen three relegations but I've always been happy here, because of the atmosphere and the fans.
"But I don't enjoy it anymore. I've had enough. I'm letting my season ticket go. This is my last season.
"Even when we were shite we still believed in them. We will never win anything under Pardew or Ashley!"
Newcastle were insipid throughout the game at Southampton and the 2,187 travelling fans made their feelings known at the final whistle.
Alan Pardew: "What can we say? They've left at 5.30 this morning and came and watched a performance that isn't us.
"I'm not really going to talk about the individual players in the team today. Collectively we have to accept responsibility."
