Steve Bruce has fronted up to take questions from disgruntled Newcastle supporters, and insisted the role remains his 'dream job' despite the backlash.
Boss Bruce, 60, took the time on Thursday evening to speak to members of the fanbase on BBC Newcastle's Total Sport show and delved into a range of topics.
On the agenda was the brand of football on show from his team, his 'downbeat' manner before games and the abuse he has been subjected to on social media.
Newcastle were made to start the new Premier League season with a 4-2 defeat at the hands of West Ham, although they twice took the lead at St James' Park.
