This quote from Steve Bruce is tragic 19:19 - Oct 20 with 5967 views | Mullet | If it’s true, and I assume it is to see him bare his soul like that is pretty horrible. Payoffs or not, the lack of dignity on Tyneside is unsavoury. Telling how some players have spoken of his character above everything else too. |  |

This quote from Steve Bruce is tragic on 19:25 - Oct 20 with 3515 views | Herbivore | He's always struck me as a decent guy. I remember back when we were last in the Prem him ripping into David Mellor because he'd made some disparaging remarks about Town when we were near the top of the league. |  |

This quote from Steve Bruce is tragic on 19:31 - Oct 20 with 3445 views | chrismakin | No different to a lot of people on here and in the town over PC and 'last season' and the beginning of this one. A man who came in, realised what was wrong with the club, made drastic changes to make the club better for the future, yet months and months of hate. i'll have a moan after a bolton loss etc or a cambridge draw, wake up the day after, sobered up and carry on supporting to the next game. But the endless threads of PC dislike has been incredible for someone doing his best to change the club for the better. [Post edited 20 Oct 2021 19:48]

How can you use an opposition journo as an example of grief from fans? On the whole most people recognise that PC is a good manager and want him to succeed. Some fans have questioned his poor record so far, and that's Ok. To compare it to the abuse Bruce as received is nonsense. |  |

Absolute rubbish. Cook was, if anything overly adored and heralded as a messiah and this continued far longer than his start he deserved. The fact you're a weathervane like a handful of others, is by the by. Cook's situation and his criticism is not remotely close to this and saying so demeans Bruce, Cook and a lot of people. I can't tell if it's a deliberate attempt to derail every thread, or you just feel the need to say something that goes with the grain constantly and end up getting it wrong far too often. |  |

Cook walks out at PR to applause from 20k people, despite a disappointing start so far, the 2 situations are not remotely similar. |  |

Generally PC has had criticism of his performance, based on his record so far. Rather than vitriol or abuse. The level of 'abuse' is not comparable to what Bruce has endured. Any abuse is too much, but appraisal and critique based on form and results is OK. |  |

I've got no love for the barcodes or their trophyless Scouser-lite routines either. But it would be a shame to see this end his career. |  |

When you see PC let him know that next time he's been thrown abuse in the pub. [Post edited 20 Oct 2021 19:51]

Depends what you want to acknowledge tbh There's a mix of posts, just like social media and other platforms and how it varies vocally in places. Some say a slight negative word, some use the same terms as Bruce has spoken off. What Bruce is saying is no different to any other manager, just look at what Mick got called, and gets called now at Cardiff. When things don't go the way the fans want, abuse is thrown. Not sure what you're on about derailing your thread, it's about abuse of a manager. Not even providing an opposite opinion either, fully agree its wrong. [Post edited 20 Oct 2021 20:32]

you and others are saying that his position isn't comparable with SB, however PC has suffered a lot of abuse in his own personal time. Of course, this is countered by happy supportive fans, that's a given. But don't discount that abuse hasn't gone his way since he's been here. |  |

Isn't the point that Bruce took an unimaginable amount of abuse with no supportive fans to counter at all? Which is of course totally different to Cook. [Post edited 20 Oct 2021 20:04]
