Wallsend Boys Club anniversary do a few weeks ago. He was one of many speakers over the evening.
At same do Bruce said he'd had a conversation with Ben Arfa where Ben Arfa told him he wasn't a footballer he was an artist.
Did he do some sort of loud pre-planned, self-satisfied chuckle after he'd said it?
Followed by an "ahhh dinaa, kids these days, eh?" headshake whilst looking at the floor?
