TWO POINTS LOST
After the 1-1 draw with Liverpool at St James' Park, Robson was satisfied with his side's performance, but thought that his team deserved the win.
Danny Murphy gave Liverpool an early lead before Alan Shearer levelled with a penalty in the second half.
"We played very well in the second half. We were very much in control and had the bulk of the play and worked their keeper very well," Robson told Sky Sports.
"We had a deserved penalty and I thought the referee was outstanding for both sides.
"I thought it was a fabulous game but it was two points we have let slip but we put on a great display.
"We played lovely football, were competitive and effective."
