Guest BooBoo Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 A Keegan signing from OFI Crete following the First Division title season, he played the first four or five games in the Premier League and looked quite canny. He was then either dropped or picked up an injury but hardly played for us again. What happened to him? What did he do wrong to see his Toon career wash up after a couple of months? Any of the older lads remember Nicky P? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Greg Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 I used to like him only because of his name and crazy hair. Can't remember what he was like as a footballer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest BooBoo Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 All i remember was that he was pretty skillful but very ball greedy. I dont think he ever scored for us though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thespence Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 He had an arguement with Keegan apparently & we sold him back to Crete for £25k I think it may of been he was shite. I did feel sorry for Nicky because KK got him to get Greek passport so he would not be classed as foreigner, bad news for Nicky was when he went back OFI he had to do national service.
