West Bromwich Albion boss Steve Bruce still hopes he can win back the fans who have turned on him following the Baggies' plunge into the bottom three.
But the resilient Bruce still hopes his team can earn a positive outcome from Saturday's visit of Luton Town.
"Ultimately, I'm to blame. I get it," Bruce told BBC Radio WM. "But I'm still convinced we can turn it round."
Despite the fact that he is a proven success as a Championship manager, having won promotion four times, with Birmingham City and Hull City, Bruce has often attracted personal vitriolic abuse from fans, most notably at former clubs Aston Villa and Newcastle United.
