Newcastle United boss John Carver concedes futures are on the line.

The Magpies held a dressing-room inquest in the wake of last Sunday's 3-0 surrender at Everton and the boss admits everyone - himself included - is fighting for his future at the club.

Newcastle were accused by Match of the Day pundit Phil Neville of having their flip-flops on.

"We all are," he said. "That's why I was a bit astonished when people (Neville) came out and talked about us being on the beach and wearing flip-flops.

"How can players do that when they know that everybody is playing for their futures?"
