These Newcastle United fans have reacted to Steve Bruce’s latest comments about the support the club has been receiving.
Bruce’s side is currently 11th in the Premier League and are undefeated in their last three matches, including a draw against the champions Manchester City. Newcastle haven’t scored many whilst under his control, scoring just 17 goals in 16 matches.
Indeed, it appears supporters now have more faith in Bruce’s guidance and leadership of the side now, considering they were vehemently against his appointment in the summer when he replaced Rafa Benitez.
Steve Bruce has praised supporters for their backing since his arrival in the summer.

Has Steve Bruce's success surprised you?
Yes
No
With four wins in their last six matches, Newcastle are really starting to find their feet with Bruce. The wins came against tough sides like Bournemouth, Sheffield United and West Ham away; achievements that have led to fans eating their words and admitting how wrong they were to begin with.
I didn’t like the appointment but you’ve got to respect the man he’s doing an amazing job

What Do We Think?
The Newcastle fans are obviously going to be happy with Bruce now, but what about when the results aren’t going their way? Whilst that remains to be seen, at least the manager appears to have managed to convince some of the St. James’ Park faithful that he is the man to help build on what Benitez managed to achieve and hopefully, the Magpies will go from strength-to-strength.
