Danny Guthrie's strike was enough to sink Leicester and fire Newcastle to the top of the Championship.

Steve Howard's header and Paul Gallagher's free-kick tested Steve Harper as Leicester started well.

Newcastle then had two penalty appeals rejected when Gallagher and then Wayne Brown looked to have handled.

But Guthrie hit the winner when he cut inside and smashed the ball home, while Alan Smith, Kevin Nolan and Joey Barton all went close to adding a second goal.

Chris Hughton's side have now won four of their five league matches so far this season and remain unbeaten.

Mike Ashley, prospective buyer Barry Moat and would-be manager Alan Shearer were all in attendance on a night when a New York-based consortium claimed they were ready to open talks over a deal for the club.

On the pitch, Newcastle were without Fabricio Coloccini after he joined up with the Argentina squad, and injured quartet Nicky Butt, Jonas Gutierrez, Shola Ameobi and Andy Carroll.

So Hughton decided to pair teenager Nile Ranger with Nolan in attack, and the former ended up winning the man-of-the-match award.
 
The Magpies went close with four minutes gone when Geremi and Guthrie broke at pace to set up Nolan, whose right-footed shot was saved comfortably by Chris Weale.

They had appeals for a penalty turned down when Ryan Taylor's cross clipped Gallagher's arm, and Brown was fortunate to escape after a more blatant handball a few seconds later.

Harper made the game's first real save when Howard met Matt Oakley's corner with a bullet header and he once again came to the rescue with a fine diving save to keep out Gallagher's free-kick.

Newcastle finally broke the deadlock when Ranger fed Guthrie, who stepped inside defender Jack Hobbs and smashed the ball past Weale.

Geremi might have doubled his side's advantage within three minutes with a swerving drive which just evaded the bottom corner, while Smith, Nolan and Barton also came close to extending the lead.

Newcastle caretaker manager Chris Hughton:
 "I am hopeful that we will bring certainly one or two [new players] in tomorrow [Tuesday]. I am even more confident that nobody in this present squad will be leaving us.

"We certainly have good players here and it is only right that the young lads are given an opportunity in this squad, because we feel they deserve that.

"But we need... to make sure we have got a squad that's strong enough to compete for a whole season. The club is aware of that."

Leicester manager Nigel Pearson:
"I don't think there was a lot in the game. The goal we conceded wasn't a good one from our perspective.

"It was a game we looked forward to and expected ourselves to get something out of.

"As far as we were concerned, it was a game we could come and win."
