jimmymag Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 Keegan looked well and showed he's still got a great passion for the game. Said he really liked Spurs, not surprising as 'Arry has said they may get battered but the're going to 'ave a right go this season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
madras Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 Pretty embarassing as a TV pundit. Remember him defending Leonardo to the hilt after the Brazilain nigh on took someones head off in USA 94? He changed his mind later on, if I remember correctly. a good while later after his position was indefensible. even when shown replay after replay he defended it for a long while.

Geordie Ahmed Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 KK is just class - certainly dont blame him for leaving and his decision has been more than vindicated by the twats running this club Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bowlingcrofty Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 So we've been relegated, lost all of our players, have a squad that's far too thin and are in complete dissaray. Keegan knew this was going to happen and kicked up a fuss - and ended up leaving. But he is to blame? WTF? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shearergol Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 Love him to bits but we'd still be in the premiership if he hadnt walked. What price 'principles' eh? Or if Ashley had actually ran the club properly with the 35 games we had remaining. Both to blame. Another example of no middle ground. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liam Liam Liam O Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 It's disgraceful the amount of abuse that Keegan gets on here. Agreed.

bowlingcrofty Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 There's some real bairns on here who think it's cool to criticise people who have done more for this club than you could dare imagine. Keegan knew what was wrong and tried to do something about it - the powers that be ignored him and this is where we've ended up. What he said was right, what he predicted came true and yet the mongs still have a pop. I bet the same people were those booing Robson and those who hero-worship Nile Ranger. Grow up man.

Are you actually capable of putting a response together without calling those that disagree with you? I'm grown up, I don't call someone a 'mong' just because they disagree with me. The man is an absolute legend and has achieved more at this football club than some Newcastle managers can only dream of, doesn't mean I'm gonna roll over and hail the 'Messiah' because he abandoned us. He made mistakes, we all do. It's wrong to ignore his mistakes because of what he achieved. Oh, and for the record, I was gutted when Robson left and I haven't jumped on the Ranger band wagon so that blows that theory straight out the water. Nice try.
