The Keegan era was even better. Absolutely magical, even though I rate Robson as a better manager. I think Keegan sold Newcastle to the whole world, beyond winning titles. It probably has a lot to do with the likes of Stavely and the Saudis seeing our potential with this current takeover.
Oy yeah, great post Theregulars, agree 100%.
I most certainly wouldn’t be a Newcastle supporter if it wasn’t for Keegan. I probably enjoyed the SBR era just as much at the time and I agree he was a better manager. It was just something about that Keegan team of 95 and 96, something really special. Maybe the most aesthetically accomplished football team of all time, along with Brazil -82 and a few others. Hopefully we can get some of that back, along with a trophy or two.
