Bruce Praise For Kinnear Outburst!
Steve Bruce: "I thought his rant at the press was absolutely fantastic," said Bruce, whose side face Newcastle at the JJB Stadium on Boxing Day.
"I was thinking 'Has he done it on purpose to take it (the pressure) away from the owner and the players and pile it on himself?'
"If he did do that then I have to say well done, pat on the back to him, because it has got them going and since he has gone in there they have lost two in 13 games.
"Newcastle have always been associated with playing one way - they've had to be because the supporters are a little gung-ho - but he's made them more difficult to be beat," said Bruce, himself a Geordie.
"That is the difference he has made. When you are down at the bottom that little bit of experience is what you need."
