Bruce is, what he is ... an old-school coach who grinds out results. He certainly didn't deserve that level of animosity from that fanbase.

Exactly this.
I think with this new influx of cash some Geordies fans are getting a little arrogant.
Now their club 'deserves' a World Class Manager.
Despite not having a 'World Class' squad. Bruce was well suited for the team that he was in charge of.
