Anderson Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 Ah man, great to hear him speak with such positivity. Was a little worried he might be a little jaded after the Ashley years and all the noise surrounding the new ownership. More convinced than ever he needs an ambassadorial role of some sort.

et tu brute Posted October 22, 2021 Share Posted October 22, 2021 (edited) Sounded to me when he was talking about the owners, that he has had communication with them. Edited October 22, 2021 by et tu brute Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a no-brainer to get him in as an ambasador of the club. When he talks everybody listen. Always speeks about the club with passion and enthusiasm.

TRon Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 It's strange he hasn't been given any role since the takeover. Would make my heart sing if he's brought in somehow in whatever role. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superior Acuña Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 I reckon there's a good chance he's not interested. I think he'd be very cautious about getting involved - he hasn't been involved directly in football since he left over 13 years ago, and was badly burned last time. I'm sure he'll enjoy our success if it comes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rafalove Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 Maybe Keegan doesn’t want a role. He’s in his 70’s now. Surprised he hadn’t been back yet though. He has to come back at some point. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NE27 Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 Even just an honorary role. Doesn't need to be actively involved in footballing decisions of the club. He needs to be held up and honoured for what he done for this club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DMLeazesender Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 I wouldn't e surprised if he makes some guest appearance at SJP in the future......something he can walk onto the pitch to and feel the love once again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LV Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 I’d love to see him come back, even if it was just to come on the pitch and get some love Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest HTT II Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 (edited) I think they are probably waiting until we are safe first before enviting the likes of KK back as a guest of honour, that and he probably wants nowt to do with NUFC anymore and who can blame him.

Dr Jinx Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 Take him on as an ambassador for the club, he could look on it as a retirement gig. Not that he needs the money but the club should definitely give back to him as much as he’s given to us. Give him a seat for life in the directors area, similar to what SBR has. Would be great seeing him looking on at home games. He’ll always be loved here. Always. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
wormy Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 (edited) Am I imagining it or didn't they try to get in touch with KK when they took over? Felt like I read something around the time Staveley was speaking with Shearer. I think/hope he'll be back in some sort of ambassador/honorary role once he trusts the new owners from afar. I don't blame him for being weary of getting in bed with any new owners before they've had time to truly show their hand as to how they intend to run the club.

Happinesstan Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 Nobody owes the club less than this man, so if he isn't interested in any role then I wouldn't push it. But it would be incredible if he was involved again, even just as a fan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
