Football can be an emotional game at the best of times, and a last-gasp defeat is one of the most painful things a fan can suffer.

It's even worse when the loss comes as a result of an individual error, but Newcastle fans have shown plenty of class in their treatment of goalkeeper Rob Elliot. The Magpies lost to Everton when the Irish international's weak stoppage-time punch was headed in by Tom Cleverley, but the club's supporters recognised Elliot's overall contribution. https://twitter.com/leejrutter1980/status/680832475204050944 https://twitter.com/Hollyberryboo/status/680832611623809024 https://twitter.com/Cliffy_Toon/status/680833340744810496 https://twitter.com/Dangerharrison/status/680833787970908160 https://twitter.com/Darboak/status/680834727201353728 https://twitter.com/AmberAddict/status/680834663812837376 https://twitter.com/alexgribbin/status/680834436745834496
