Benitez meets Newcastle owner amid feud

The situation at the club seems to be at breaking point from an outside point of view, as the tensions that have strained the relationship between owner and coach worseining since the summer transfer disagreements.

Former Newcastle player and coach Kevin Keegan has added fuel to the fire this week by calling for Newcastle fans to boycott the matches, but it seems as though things are getting slightly better.

Benitez and Ashley were photgraphed entering an Italian restaurant in the outskirts of the city.

The players were then shown to be entering the eatery, as it seems that Ashley wants to instill some much-needed togetherness between the ownership and the footballing part of the club.

Newcastle have had a terrible start to the season, and all parts of the club will hope that will turn around soon. They next face Man Utd at home on Saturday.
