LooneyToonArmy Posted September 6, 2010 Share Posted September 6, 2010 Wanted to post this on the KK thread but it was seemingly closed....well anyway, canny read.... The ultimate messiah! Never mind Craig Bellamy's move to Cardiff...Kevin Keegan's switch to Newcastle remains England's most sensational transfer EVER Never mind Manchester City’s £125million outlay, the transfer which captured football fans’ imagination most this summer was Craig Bellamy’s move to Cardiff City. Bellamy’s decision to shun the Premier League in favour of joining his hometown team was greeted with something approaching hysteria in south Wales, a mood which intensified when he scored on his Championship debut, a 4-0 win over Doncaster. But for fans with longer memories, Bellamy’s switch, although remarkable, didn’t quite measure up to English football’s ultimate shock transfer: Kevin Keegan’s £100,000 move from Southampton to Newcastle in 1982. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-1309319/Never-mind-Craig-Bellamy-Cardiff--Kevin-Keegan-Newcastle-remains-Englands-sensational-transfer.html?

Mick Posted September 6, 2010 Share Posted September 6, 2010 Keegan coming here was brilliant and it was during a time when I was already been going to all games home and away for a number of years. The interest in the club went through the roof once he'd signed. I was lucky enough to talk to him when he played for us and he was so easy to get on with, it was like talking to a long lost friend.

Guest BooBoo Posted September 6, 2010 Share Posted September 6, 2010 I read that and thought "surely Skirge can't be old enough to remember KK as a player". I never realised you were in your 30s, always thought you were a bairn (no offence). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
