10 Hammers And Tigers Who Would Love To Relegate Newcastle

3. Alex Bruce (Hull City)

Son of Geordie Steve Bruce, Alex was actually born in Norwich - and he also followed the Manchester United path, just as his father did before him. However, Bruce's beef with Newcastle stretches back to April 2006 - when he watched from the St Andrews bench as as the Magpies secured a 0-0 draw in the penultimate game of the season to send Birmingham City down. Bruce's father was in charge of the Blues, and the defender himself was on the bench that day as the Brummies went tumbling into the Championship - and he wants it to be the Magpies who experience that feeling on Sunday, rather than himself.
