Newcastle's clash with Leicester delayed by big screen safety issues
NEWCASTLE'S match against Leicester has been delayed by an hour after problems with a big screen.
The clash will now kick-off at 4pm after blustery conditions caused a new big screen at the Leazes End of St James' Park to become loose.
Engineers work quickly to address the issue but fans were not able to be admitted to the ground.
Part of the structure around the 60m screen came loose in the wind.
Club officials have now confirmed that spectators will be able to get into the ground at 3:15pm with kick-off scheduled for 45 minutes later.
