Steve Bruce: "As a club we accepted Alan's honesty in the whole situation, because he's been big and brave enough and he had to come out and say what he did.
"We don't want the images we saw last week and Alan would be first to understand that.
"We were all shocked with what we saw and Alan has to pay the consequences for that, which I'm sure he will do.
"Alan is going to take the fine and punishment and whatever is dished to him. I'm sure he'll take it and find a way to move on and erase it.
"Maybe he'll look at himself and say there have been too many incidents that he's been involved in.
"We all stand there in the technical area and get lost in it sometimes and maybe that's the wrong way to be."
