EPL: Newcastle boss Bruce to be in charge for Spurs clash
Newcastle United boss, Steve Bruce, is set to be in charge for the weekend’s clash with Tottenham.
According to The Sun, Bruce will not be sacked before the weekend – but Newcastle’s new Saudi owners are looking for a replacement.
The long-suffering Toon Army supporters were celebrating last week after Mike Ashley miserable reign in charge was ended following the £300m takeover.
Fans were desperate to see the back of boss Bruce, 60, as well as a whopping 94 per cent voted that they wanted him gone.

Speculation has been mounting since the takeover was completed that a change in the dug-out would occur before they welcome Tottenham to St James’ Park on Sunday.
However, the veteran is set to celebrate his 1000th match as a manager in charge of his hometown team despite him expecting to get the bullet.
