Steve Bruce Claps Back at Dwight Gayle’s Criticism

The controversy began when Gayle, now playing for Hibernian, openly criticized Bruce's tactical decisions during his tenure at Newcastle, claiming they stifled the team's potential.

Bruce, who has been under scrutiny since taking the helm at Blackpool, did not mince words in his retort. In a series of interviews across various media outlets, including the Blackpool Gazette and Sky Sports, Bruce expressed his frustration, defending his managerial strategies and past decisions at Newcastle. He highlighted his achievements and the complexities of managing a high-pressure club like Newcastle United.
