Newcastle United interim manager John Carver has insisted that he doesn't 'accept' the abuse that he was subjected to by supporters during the team's latest defeat.
The 50-year-old, who was appointed Alan Pardew's successor until the end of the season, faced verbal criticism from at least two fans during the Magpies' 3-2 defeat to Swansea City on Saturday.
"That's the first time I've had to deal with something like that," The Northern Echo quotes Carver as saying. "I was just totally getting abused throughout the whole of the second half, and I am not accepting that.
"It was personal stuff and I don't think it's right. No-one should have to put up with that. When I took the job, I knew this was the most pressurised situation outside the top six. I don't care what anyone says, it is."
Carver denied claims from a fan, who stated that the coach offered to fight him at the end of the game at St James' Park.
In September, Carver was forced to apologise for angrily confronting fans during Newcastle's 4-0 defeat to Southampton at St Mary's.
