Victor Moses took advantage of some lax defending to head in the first after 13 minutes and was then gifted an even easier second two minutes later when Fabricio Coloccini fluffed his clearance and the Wigan striker fired home the loose ball.

It got worse for Newcastle after 36 minutes when Shaun Maloney capped a fine flowing move with a finish from a tight angle on the left and Franco Di Santo made it a first half to remember for Wigan fans with a wonderful curling shot from outside the area in stoppage time.

Nathan Dyer headed in a third after 15 minutes, but a fine header from Steven Fletcher gave Wolves hope moments later.
