Steve Bruce says he is determined to be in charge of Newcastle United next season and will ignore a poll in which 95 per cent of supporters called for him to leave now.
The local newspaper, the Evening Chronicle, has demanded that Bruce walk away for the good of the club and their readers responded in a recent survey pleading for a change to be made.
Newcastle have won two matches in 20 and fans protested outside of St James’ Park following their 3-0 surrender at Brighton a fortnight ago.
Mike Ashley let it be known within 12 hours of that defeat that Bruce would be going nowhere, causing further irritation among supporters.
