Our next five home games are cardiff, Wigan, button Albion, Leeds and Preston. They all look very winnable

We've some tougher away games where draws would be a decent result

But we've got pretty much a fully fit squad now and a great chance to really motor up the league

There is still a faint aura of "This is your uncle Steve, he's going to be staying with us for a while" about him

So long as he doesn't expect me to hold his hand on the way to school, I can cope

Or spend some time with him in his shed.

No need-Go all out on the attack and we should have it sewn up by half time.

Lets not take the thread off tangent.

It would be a great way to achieve closure.

I have confidence that with Steve Bruce in charge we have every chance of making the playoffs. I am looking forwards to our victory against The Blues in the final!!!

So much so I have purchased a family season ticket, so that my wife and boys can enjoy the ride.

The Noses won't make the Play Offs. Their squad is too small, same as Huddersfield.

Neither will Leeds, full of youthful enthusiasm but they barely troubled Newcastle today.

For the first time since O'Neill we've appointed the best man for the job in hand. There is still a faint aura of "This is your uncle Steve, he's going to be staying with us for a while" about him but I am less forthright in my criticism than I have been in the past. I'd go as far as to say going unbeaten for the remainder of the season isn't beyond the realms of possibility if not probability.

I think it's in his own hands Joe. He won't get offered a better job and I think Dr Tony would stand by him

I bloody love Steve Bruce.  I'm now getting to the happy point where I don't expect us to lose any games, which is a nice reversal of the last few years.  He's also the first boss we've had in a ages who doesn't set my teeth on edge in interviews.  Down to earth, honest and intelligent. 
And a great sense of humour.

Thing is he actually looks like he is really enjoying the challenge and talks with a big smile on his face, long may it continue.
