Newcastle defender Fabricio Coloccini appeared to be struck by an object from the crowd as the visitors celebrated their opener.
Pam Nash: Roy Keane can go back to Villa now, as manager.
Jonathan Funnell: Come on Villa, take a punt on Eddie Howe. Young, good football and we need a fresh start, not the usual names.
Ronan Sully: I reckon Lambert must be Tony Fernandes' man for QPR then...

Aston Villa
Just a couple of weeks ago Aston Villa chief executive Tom Fox told told BBC Radio 5 live's Pat Murphy that the club were fully behind manager Paul Lambert - and that he remained important to owner Randy Lerner.
Fox told BBC Sport sacking Lambert mid-season would be like "flipping a coin".
"When things aren't going well, fans bay for that type of blood," Fox said.
"That's not the way that I or the owner are going to make a decision. It's a false narrative."
It ain't false no more.
An excellent 'number nine' goal as John Carver takes the lead against Alan Pardew.
Newcastle right-back Daryl Janmaat does all of the donkey work down the right, beating his man and digging out a great cross for Papiss Cisse to hammer into the roof of the net. He didn't have to jump, the cross was that good.
It's against the run of play but Newcastle lead.
Match of the Day
Match of the Day is on tonight.
Brace yourself for these regional variations: 22:45-00:15 on BBC One and 23:10-00:40 on BBC One Scotland, with BBC One Wales at 23:10-00:40 and BBC One Northern Ireland 23:40-01:10.
Burnley had 10 attempts on goal in that first half, compared to Manchester United's three. The scoreline doesn't reflect it though.

"Paul Lambert never, ever ducked anything. He never ducked a press conference, in all his time at Aston Villa, before or after a game, and to the best of my knowledge he never held anything against me. I just asked him straightforward questions.
"He's a tough Glaswegian, he can look after himself. And he'll get over this one. In certain areas I don't think he did a bad job, but that's a heretical observation for many Aston Villa fans."
It's well, er, pretty dull at The Hawthorns. Neither side particularly close to a breakthrough at the moment.
James, Manchester: Disgraceful first half. Worse than anything under Moyes. Completely bossed by the team bottom of the table at home. Send Falcao back now.

Former Burnley midfielder Paul Weller
BBC Radio Lancashire
"So frustrating. Burnley have been absolutely brilliant but two crosses, two goals conceded and they've gone into half time 2-1 down. Nobody went in with Smalling. Wrestle him, tackle him, do anything but don't give him a free header. Criminal from Burnley."
Fraizer Campbell heads Palace into the lead - with a deft touch - but he is a yard offside. Palace still on top.
Burnley have put up a great show... but it's counting for nothing at the moment.
Former Man City player Fred Eyre
BBC Radio Manchester
"Sergio Aguero used his hands and deserved to be booked. I called it immediately. I'm sad to say that he knew it was handball straight away. He helped it into the net after the ball popped up off his foot. It might have been instinctive."
Simon Brotherton
Match of the Day commentator
"Southampton have been frustrated by West Ham. Bags of endeavour, just not much by the way of end product so far."
Still relatively even at The Hawthorns, with Swans midfielder Jonjo Shelvey firing over the top from 25 yards.
West Ham had little time to prepare for this game according to manager Sam Allardyce but they have been organised and resolute, restricting Southampton to just one clear-cut chance when Sadio mane saw a shot hacked off the line.
Guy Mowbray
BBC Match of the Day commentator at the Britannia Stadium
"A frantic first half at the Britannia Stadium. Sergio Aguero got one and thought he had two, instead he is the only player with his name in the referee's notebook. Stoke 1-1 Manchester City."
All looking good for Barcelona in their Copa del Rey semi-final against Villarreal - they are now 3-1 up in the first leg of their tie, the goals coming from Lionel Messi, Andres Iniesta and Gerard Pique. Twenty minutes left in that one.
Hmm, that said, Neymar has just had a penalty saved.
Make Chris Smalling's a double. The substitute puts Manchester United back in front against the run of play when he rises high to plant home Angel Di Maria's corner.
