Cape Town - Newcastle United manager John Carver has said it is "time for action" after his side suffered a seventh straight defeat on Saturday, going down 3-2 at home to Swansea City, and slipping closer to the relegation zone.
Carver, who has now presided over the Magpies worst top-flight run since 1977, saw his men take the lead through Ayoze Perez only to concede in first-half stoppage time when Nelson Oliveira headed in from a corner.
From there the Swans never looked back with strikes from Gylfi Sigurdsson and Jack Cork securing the victory despite a late consolation from Siem de Jong who was returning after a long injury lay-off.
