Former Newcastle boss Steve Bruce says his relationship with the club is good.
Bruce says he gets along with their managing director Amanda Stavely.
He told Ladbrokes Fanzone: "I'd like to think my relationship with the club was okay, and that I left on good terms with the people in charge. I was asked for my advice by the current owners, and I put Eddie [Howe] forward as someone who I thought would be a good fit for them.
"With the euphoria of the takeover, the only negative thing that was left in the club was myself.
"For both parties, it was important things went the way they did. Like they say, a new broom always sweeps clean. The best thing they've done - and fair play to the owners for this - is they've put the right people in place like the manager, like Dan Ashworth and like Darren Eales at the very top. And they couldn't have asked for a better couple of years."
