Yet a West Brom roared its way back in to the game having an equaliser from Billy Jones soon after the hour mark which was enough to cause a point. Changes were made three by the Baggies from their defeat to Arsenal with Romelu Lukaku and Marc-Antoine Fortune leading the line though Steve Clarke also elected for a go back to motion for Gordon Popov. Alan Pardew welcomed back James Perch and Massaidio Haidara to first-team obligations with the latter making his complete Premier League debut for the team. The guests started out of the block and took the lead in the opening twenty minutes with their first effort. A fine passing shift allowed Papiss Cisse the opportunity to drift a cross in from the left-hand side a' his supply cushioned into the net by Gouffran past a Ben Foster in target. Newcastle was in control and piled on the force with two attempts in rapid succession but a deft flick was denied by the Baggies goalkeeper from Steven Taylor and a sharp volley from Yohan Cabaye from the subsequent corner. When his under-hit back-pass fell to Cisse limited to the striker to spurn the opportunity with a failed dinked effort foster then spared the blushes of Jonas Olsson. The first-half ended in dispute when the home side were denied a punishment for a on Billy Jones. The umpire and his secretary a' who was a mere ten yards away a' awarded a just outside the region for an leg from James Perch, yet replays proved the problem was inside the box. West Brom a' which seemed dull in the first time a produced a change through the introduction of Shane Long, who straight away picked along side it up a gear. A dramatic impact was nearly made by the striker inside two minutes when he was refused a poacheras attempt after a fizzing long-range drive was fumbled by Rob Elliot from Fortune. But West Brom's second-half improvements were granted with a delightful group purpose from Jones. The energy and hold-up play from Lukuku inside the area gave the opponent a chance to stab the ball in to the web to offer his side an earned equalizer. Newcastle eased its way back in to the game towards the final five minutes to numb the risk of the home area. With the clock ticking down, the two groups played out to a rating draw after an enjoyable game of two halves left Pardew's side involved more in the relegation fight.
