Dokko Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 Sporting Director or some shit would be a nice touch. They'll want someone more qualified for the role, but if they ever came round to spending more than half an hour in his presence they'll find themselves buying the club all over again. There's got to be a role for him somewhere. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 He overstepped the boundary when he had a Director of Football role at Fulham where he went over Ray Wilkins head and eventually took over. I’d sooner he was just a face now rather than actively involved. He’d be a shadow over the manager’s head. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaydnNUFC Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 Would have him in an ambassadorial sort of role for sure. Not a football one though, personally think that ship has sailed. Get Rafa back or get someone of the calibre of Pochettino or Allegri and give them free reign. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cort Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 Ambassador role with a statue and the East Stand named after him would be nice. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RodneyCisse Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 Give him Keegan Korner when we rotate the pitch and get 70k stadium. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carlito Posted April 14, 2020 Share Posted April 14, 2020 Wtf... of course you want KK back. You just Don’t know it yet Preach! Would have him managing us at 79 to be quite honest. That's how much faith I have in the man Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NG32 Posted April 15, 2020 Share Posted April 15, 2020 Give him the Bobby Concur role, a link between the fans and the new board/ owners. At least for period to help get the club back on its feet. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGuv Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 I hope he’s in the stands at the very least for our first game under new owners. A half time pitch appearance would be immense. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keggy_Keagal Posted April 16, 2020 Share Posted April 16, 2020 Kevin Keegan knows more about managing this club than anyone else in the country. I firmly believe he could still do a very good job here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raconteur Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 https://sport.optus.com.au/articles/os7297/danny-tiatto-interview Danny Tiatto tells the story of the time KK put him in a headlock and dragged him from an altercation with the Norwich bench - then threatens to kill Keegan before ducking the manager’s phone call. Tiatto comes across a right cunt, but that’s hardly news... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 Even if his role is no more than ‘meet and greet’ with the hopefully new sponsors and corporates, being sat at every game near Staveley, it’ll be great just having him back at SJP.

Dr.Spaceman Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 Thank fuck this is just an ambassadorial role. Love the man, he was the first Newcastle manager I knew, but for obvious reasons I'd much rather we went for someone like Rafa or Allegri. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cronky Posted April 26, 2020 Share Posted April 26, 2020 Imagine having Rafa and Keegan together to sell the clubs vision to potential signings. Do you think Rafa would want Keegan around the place? I'm not convinced by the Keegan story. It sounds like the kind of thing that would get made up. If true, I think it would be a mistake to detract any attention from the manager, who will be trying to make his own history. And of course the minute anything goes slightly wrong, there's going to be a crazy section shouting for KK to take over. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
